- We get paid $70 per weekday and $105 per weekend. I think it's $140 for public holidays.
- Eh, it can be a bit annoying at times. It's pretty easy to swap with people as needed. I believe we're allowed to opt out of it too, some of the other devs have. Since we've started it we've tuned our monitoring scripts that false alarms are pretty rare.
- Any time spent on incidents is rounded up to 15m. Which can make it feel quite unworth it if you get an alert in the middle of the night. Unsurprisingly since they reduced down from an hour it's taken at least 16m to investigate any alert.
- We've got a decent number of people on rotation that I'm only on call about three weeks a year.
