Unless you're being paid to be on-call, if you're WFH, you should still close the lid on your laptop at 5pm and open it at 9am.

- somsak2 3y agoMost people doing software are salaried, not hourly, so this doesn't really apply very cleanly. Would you rather get paid $100k and be paid extra for oncall, or $350k and not be compensated for oncall? That's the real comparison that's being made, and why people consistently choose the FAANGs where on-call is an expectation -- the extra on call pay isn't going to make up for the big gap in total comp.
