$150 per week of on-call.
It’s almost never worth it to me (we almost always get at least 1 call during the week, if not 4-5).
Dang, that's a big difference from the top post.
I worked at a place like that and I ended up saying no to on-call. It depends on your leverage, of course. I was able to tell them "I'm here to fix your mess, not to roll in it."
Seems like you have some organizational and technical debt in the company that would be worth addressing before agreeing to be on-call
