&gt;<i>Ensure you are compensated appropriately.</i><p>I agree 100%<p>My last company is notorious for official-unofficial on call duties.<p>You must remain within 30 minutes of the office, be near your cell phone and sober, 24x7. Because there is no official policy, there was no rotation, so technically I was always on call. Their official stance on compensation is that salaried employees can&#x27;t get overtime, and it&#x27;s covered by the annual bonus anyway. Yep, unlimited on-call &amp; overtime covered by a ~7% bonus that pays out about 50% of the time.<p>I was once out of the country on a statutory holiday and didn&#x27;t answer my personal cell phone (roaming would have killed me), which caused me to get reprimanded and lose my bonus for the entire year.<p>After some back and forward I quit soon after.
