Probation Probe

Recently our HR shop has been debating how we want to apply a probationary period going forward for our new hires. Today we apply a 90 day probationary period across the board for all new hires, exempt and non-exempt. Since our it takes longer than 90 days in many cases to evaluate the proficiency of our exempt professional hires, we are thinking about extending the probationary period from 90 to 120 or more for exempts and leaving non-exempts at 90 days.
Does anybody have any experience with differing probationary periods for exempt and non-exempt employees, and if so how is it working? I'd also be interested in just knowing how long your probationary periods are.
