It escalates to your manager, then skip, and upwards.

They pre-empted this when we complained, and went straight to the director to say that the VP wants their org to complete something for a demo on Monday (they were told Friday). Since we were downstream, their feature would break our service contact, and would mean the E2E test wouldn't work, so our director asked kindly for us to help where we can and to prioritise the main work on Monday. By that time your weekend is already ruined, but under that manager in particular they've been working every weekend for about a year...

Yikes. Is the pay good at least?

It is, but given that I'm about to pay £20k a year to travel to the office, less so.
