That amount of uncompensated overtime is not really normal, no. That said, at least with my salaried job it’s understood that at times there will be crunch periods where a lot of work needs to be done fast where uncompensated overtime is required. I have yet to experience it though, but if I did it would likely be only a few hours a week, no more than 10 hours (2 per day). But realistically that’s the entire reason you are paid a salary versus paid hourly. Instead of being paid to do X hours of work, you are being paid to get your assigned tasks complete. Sometimes this requires more than the normal 40 hour workweek. But it should not ALWAYS require more than 40 hours a week, that’s a sign they are overloading you instead of hiring another person. Should you HAVE to work like that? Not really, but now is not really the best time to be picking and choosing a job. There is more than likely a willing person to take your place. This should be considered when you are thinking about what to do to resolve your situation. That said, if you have an actual contract where it says you will work 40 hours, what does that contract say about overtime? If it has no clause regarding overtime then I would be firm on your job being limited to 40 hours as per the contract. But like I said, that runs the risk of your boss deciding to fire you and hire another person. If that risk is acceptable to you, if you value your free time as much as I do, I would not let this continue to happen, and I would be willing to find another job as a result.
