When we work late, they will make us come in later the next day to balance out the hours.
For example my regular hours are 9:30-6. If I work late an hour on Monday, then they will tell me to come in an hour late on Tuesday morning, so that they are avoiding paying me overtime.
Is this legal?
Yes.
An example of illegal would be not paying you for hours worked.
Also, working late and overtime are two very different things. "Working late" is simply the informal matter of being at the workplace past the time that one is usually done with work.
Overtime is another matter, with associated laws.

Yes. Companies can adjust or turn down the request to pull overtime at a facility. Before covid, I pulled a ton of overtime and never had problems getting approved for it. Now with budget cuts, overtime is virtually nonexistent. We also have to adjust our hours at my current job. We may not like it but at least we have a job unlike many Americans.....
