  1. How much extra do you get paid for being on an call rotation?
  2. Is the salary/benefits the same for inconvenience of being on call and working on an incident?
  3. What other rules do you have? Eg. max time working on an incident, rota for highly unsociable hours?
  4. How many people are on the same schedule with you?
  5. Where are you based, EU/US/UK/Canada?

    Policy is 7 day rotation, 24h a day. Must be available to respond within 30m.

    1. ~$800 US a week. More if there are holidays. Get paid even if no incidents occur.
    2. I get phone and Internet reimbursement that normal devs don’t get.
    3. There’s supposed to be a policy where if I get paged between 10pm and 6am, I don’t have to show up to work for 11h. It’s not strictly followed in my team, but I always try and get my value from it.
    4. 7 others, so I’m on-call for 1 week every 2 months.
    5. Job is US based, but company is EU owned
