Hourly and yes on the overtime. He had the option to go salary but we knew he'd make more if he did hourly since his boss seems to overwork the salaried employees. Either way insurance wouldn't be covered for us, so it was a no brainer. If they'd pay our insurance if he went salary we would have went with that.
I am the one working right now and H is staying at home. I work two PT jobs. One is salary (where I get health insurance), and one is hourly. There is no overtime pay and the exact number of hours is specified in my contract.
DH is hourly. He can work overtime but in his field he makes too much to qualify for 1.5/hour rate, he just gets his regular hourly wage no matter how many hours he works.

Straight salary, no OT pay. He doesn't end up working much more than 40 hours in the office though. He does some work from home, but again, not too much.
Salary. He can get paid for overtime if he has a lot of stuff to get done before a deadline, but if he is only working over for a few hours or just for a week, he will just do it for free.
ETA: I have to say that I'm surprised so many people are hourly. I wouldn't have thought hourly positions paid enough to afford to SAH. I thought all professional jobs were salary.
Salary. In the busy season he works more than the usual 40 hour work week and does not get OT. He does have the option to manage extra events and is paid commission for those but it's maybe once a month.
DH is salary but does get overtime and everyone gets a monthly productivity bonus check based on some formula. Honestly, it has kept him from applying for other positions in his company because some are salary with no overtime time yet you are expected to work the 50 plus hours. If he did that, he would make much less.
Salary and will get comp time for overtime instead of overtime pay. He also gets a productivity bonus twice a year.
He made more when he was hourly because he worked a lot of overtime, he volunteered for it because of the pay (even more if he worked a holiday) but he took the salary job as a step up and worried that when another job came available that they might overlook him since he already turned it down once.
He gets paid a weekly salary based on 40-hour work week; however, because it's State law to pay 1.5 times for any hours over 40 here in CA, he will get a separate overtime check for any hours over 40. He has to submit a time card every Friday afternoon to document his hours each day. They are very generous in their overtime pay - they don't care if you work 40 or 65 hours each week, they just want to be honest and record your time accordingly.
Also, he gets 2x hourly rate for any hours worked where he hasn't had more than 12 hours between workdays and if he works on a holiday as determined by his employer. This happens a lot in the Spring and over Christmas break.
Bonuses are paid every December and LTIs are paid every January. Both are guaranteed as part of his employment contract though the amount may vary.
DH has his own small construction company so he gets paid dependng on how much he works; some projects he charges hourly but most of the time is by sq. footage
Since he makes his own hours the OT thing is not available
Hourly. Plus he has flex time so his hours are based on 80 in 2 weeks. And he can get overtime when there is money, otherwise he gets credit hours and can take extra time off later.
Currently salary plus extra for taking extra call. Soon he will switch to RVUs, or relative value units. He will get paid depending on what he is doing: x for annual clinic visit, y for such and such procedure, z for such and such surgery. Also, I think with the affordable care act he will get some kind of bonuses for preventive care or some such. Not clear on that part.
Re: Salary or hourly?
DH gets paid hourly though I am sure there is a promotion which will be a salary position in the near future. (His boss has already told him about it)
He gets paid overtime and gets a monthly bonus.

Why did you ask this question?

ETA: like many DH's on this board he works way more than 40 hours a week, especially lately, overtime pay would be awesome

No overtime, and since he works around 70-80 hours a week, that's a bummer. LOL
