Re:What is your company's on-call compensation scheme? on Thursday April 25, 2019 @12:03PM (#19749509)
It was a team of four, and barring vacations, we took it in turns every week.

When the system was buggy, we all dreaded it. When it was good, we all got basically free money.

Over public holidays, we did volunteer as the pay rate was higher still.

My team had a fixed ~$300 per week for out of hours/weekend oncall. The philosophy was that by not having payouts per oncall, it would incentivise the team to prioritise more stability / resilience work.

Would be interesting to see how later versions of Node perform compared to v6 in the tests.

Node 8 especially, with turbofan.
