You're telling me this isn't a thing other places?
- erik_seaberg 2y agoSeems pretty normal from two Bay Area startups and two FAANG-sized orgs. Primary should respond, secondary shouldn't be disturbed unless primary seems incapacitated (no pager ack) or is at wits' end. Edit: I should add that the secondary gets paged more often while the primary is new to the team and doesn't know how to fix everything. In return, you go on call 1/n less often in the future. If I need to sleep in after a bad night, it's always been fine.
