90 hours in a week? What on earth? As a programmer, I don't know a single person in the industry that works anything close to that. Nor do I know anyone who would put up with that. Software developers are in such high demand right now that pay, benefits, and work/life balance are all at an absolute premium in this career.

My friends at larger corporations are required to do no more than 40 hours a week, and at my startup, while I will have an occasional firedrill needing me to work outside of business hours, it's generally a normal 9-5.

Your friends should really look for new work if 90 hours is something regularly expected of them. There's no shortage of available jobs for a programmer.
