I'm exempt salaried but quite happy with it these days. Nobody cares when I come in or leave, results are all that matters at my firm. Some weeks I work 70hrs, others can be 25-30. I averaged 45hrs last year. I've learned over the past few years that even the best managers are going to be primarily reactive. They will not generally work to fix problems if you are doing it for them; you have to let poo poo hit the fan to get a response. I used to be the type to put in more hours to make up for personnel shortages or whatever, but eventually I just stopped doing it (while also being clear that we needed more resources). As a result a Big Project went bad and suddenly we started hiring more people and management listens to requests for more resources now. It's the equivalent of kicking a schoolyard bully in the balls. Of course, this works because the job market for my profession is pretty hot and having recruiters contact you ever other week makes it really easy to find a new job if this poo poo backfires.
