In our case, it's an app that's really only used from 8am-5am EST. If there's a problem at 4:00AM it's not a big deal. It's a different story when there are live customers.
Although, (ideally) any problem like that would be cost by a testing suite.

I rarely roll in to work earlier than 10 am, and that is down from about 11 am at my last job since this one has a regular 10 am scrum meeting. Yet, I wouldn't consider leaving a broken build active on Friday evening, and I'm just talking about the tip build in source code control, not a broken production system. I wouldn't even consider working for a place where developers just pushed new code willy nilly to live production systems, because that's just stupid.
