Company requesting “volunteer” work after hours for no pay.

Our company recently went through downsizing and restructuring. Its been difficult and morale is low. Several people have quit recently. So the execs decided that to turn things around, a survey of our clients to find out what we do right/wrong would be helpful. Today they sent out a memo asking people to work for a few additional hours every night next week to call clients and administer the survey. No compensation other than a gift certificate for dinner for the person who makes ghe most calls. Is this as deranged as it sounds?
