Is it normal for a company to ask you to track every minute of your day in an application (Salesforce, adp, TargetProcess, etc)
Friend mention they are required to account for every minute of their day in their tool and it must add up to 8hrs or it is assumed they are slacking off. This is a tech company non developer full time salary position, but even developers have to do it also but that is a little bit easier since they don't switch projects as much.
Still seems excessive, over bearing and very dated micromanagement style of management.
Just wanted to see how many companies out there do this and is it common? The only job I had that required a punch clock was a retail part time job.

Told him to keep looking. Doesn't sound like a long term place you wanna work.
Sounds like a huge waste of time for very little data that probably isn't accurate anyways.
