Ask HN: What is your on-call policy?
3 コメント
I'm an SRE.
* How many days per year are you on call? About 50. Depends on whether the team is fully staffed.
* How often do you actually get a call? Right now I think it's about 0.3 pages per 12 hour shift. So once every three shifts.
* How many rotations are you in, and how many other people are in those rotations? One on-call rotation with ~8 other people. Fluctuates wildly because SRE is a high turnover job, but right now we're pretty much fully staffed.
* Do you get any time off or additional compensation for being on call? Two thirds for time outside business hours. So a 12 hour shift on the weekend gives a full day off (or the monetary equivalent), even when you don't get paged at all.
* Do you get any time off or additional compensation for responding to an incident? No, except for a potential spot bonus for handling a huge outage.

* How many days per year are you on call? Once week every 7-8 weeks
* How often do you actually get a call? On average two times a week I'm on-call if you don't count stupid alerts (I shutdown a server for upgrade, forgot to disable alerting for that first). The stupid alerts are always during the day.
* How many rotations are you in, and how many other people are in those rotations? 1 Rotation, 7-8 Person.
* Do you get any time off or additional compensation for being on call? One day time off in lieu for each week oncall.
* Do you get any time off or additional compensation for responding to an incident? Time off in lieu for time spend on the call.

If you're a developer, is anyone doing first tier support before you get a call?
