Last job I was compensated a flat $450 for being on call 1 week, on top of my salary in the 140K range. Everybody received the same on-call pay and I'm pretty sure salaries were similar but not identical.

100% this ^ For every cutting edge startup chasing young people to abuse, there are a dozen existing companies with tons of legacy technical debt. They don't pay FANG salaries, but they will pay. In my experience lately, it seems like

I understand, but I've had the reverse experience where having somewhere to go meant I was shut out of the things my friends were doing and I was stuck masking all day. I felt like an automaton who barely spoke. I urge you to find a co
