A comment on Oncall Compensation for Software Engineers. Parent comment
They won’t. No one will. They want their salaried employees to also be firefighters and the premise is absurd.
I don’t take calls at night; you cannot reach me. What are they gonna do, fire me?
Good joke. I run interviews and staffing someone who knows their left hand from their right is nearly impossible. Leverage works wonders.
