My job was pretty laid back, and I could come and go so long as my work got done on time. I had a friend that did similiar work for another company. But my friend's company changed. His company redid the bid on their DoD contract with the military to provide more hrs of work for the same amount of $. What this meant was that the company asked their employees to "voluntarily" work 1hr a day extra but with no pay. So you put in 9hrs a day but only get paid for 8hrs. But you guessed it. If you didn't work the extra hr a day, the management would harass you about it.
