- troupe 3y agoThey might even be able to do other things that would make it worth it. Like giving additional vacation for being on call, etc.
- saltminer 3y agoOr alternatively, just don't have on-call? It's incredible how many teams have on-call for their internal service which is only used during business hours across 1-4 timezones. If your system has predictable usage and isn't global, there's very little reason to have on-call unless you have a client willing to pay $$$ or the loss of business would be catastrophic, in which case you can absolutely afford to compensate your devs for it.
