Oncall is complete bullshit and the fact that we have standardised this without Additional pay has greatly affected my life working in big tech.

I wouldn't say it's without pay. It's in the job description when you're hired and the pay should compensate for that. SREs are typically paid very well.

[server_man3000]

Oncall being in the job description just doesn’t rationalize the abuse and insanity Ive seen myself and my team go through.

I don’t think a bullet in a job description and expected baseline pay for a tech job is reasonable enough to accept that either.

On call rotations are part of basically every engineering team that owns any production service at tech companies, not just SRE
