&gt; meanwhile, some developers complain that they didn&#x27;t sign up to &quot;be on call&quot;, despite that they are only being tasked with such for their own team&#x27;s code<p>If they didn&#x27;t then how is that not a legitimate complaint? If I take a job with the knowledge that oncall is required then it&#x27;s fine. If I take a job and 6 months later they hand me a pager and say starting now you&#x27;re oncall one week a month I&#x27;m going to get upset.
