Young programmers can easily be guilted into working 60 hours a week because young smart people tend to be a little naive about how the world turns. My advice to junior programmers is "your recruiters/managers are probably more cynical than you think, understand you better than you think, and manipulate you better than you think".

Ah yes, passionate and naive is an awesome combination for exploitation.
