As a person who had to work full time to make it through both high school
and college i was most appreciative of those teachers who made
assignments in advance (like at the beginning of a chapter) ... This
allowed me to use my days off work productively.  I particularly disliked
the practice of giving a few problems every night as there were some
nights in high school where i had to work from 4pm to 3 am and then
attempt the problems.
My view is to give the students the problems at the start of a
topic/section (chapter for those who use textbooks) and allow the student
to manage their work.  I do this and also mention at the end of each
subtopic the problems that are associated with what we have  just covered.
