They were expected to be on call 24/7. But they weren't paid for all of that. These were things they were actually ordered to do. It wasn't merely an expectation that they "would" do it, they were "required" to do it.
Eventually they burned out.

And made hundreds of thousands (and in at least one case over a million) doing that. Obvious you have never run a sales or marketing company or had employees under contract. If they burn out they have the option to leave but there are conditions. These were supposedly intelligent people so they knew the risk and they knew what they signed......I applaud the Developer for their actions and am disgusted by those that believe it's ok to do anything illegal as long as it's against the Developer.
