The place I used to work in, there is no pay for on-call at all, but give an alternative leave.

The culture the manager/boss want to give to me is that:

- `It is a bonus to have on-call opportunity, so that you can have alternative leave.`

BTW, this is one of the biggest software company in the country I stay, when I heard what he talked to me, I decided to leave this place.

> I did one on-call from 11PM to 1AM to fix one product issue, and they want to give me 1 hour alternative leave for my contribution. It is not fair.

Anyway, I wasn't there anyway. Be aware of this company/culture, `on-call opportunity is a bonus`, no matter how much they pay you.
