How much extra do you get paid for being on an call rotation?
Is the salary/benefits the same for inconvenience of being on call and working on an incident?
What other rules do you have? Eg. max time working on an incident, rota for highly unsociable hours?
How many people are on the same schedule with you?
Where are you based, EU/US/UK/Canada?

              I get 15/hr just for being on-call. This is on top of my normal salary. Whether I receive a call or not.
See above
We have a maximum engagement time of 12 hours, then rotate with your backup on-call resource to keep folks fresh.
A primary and a backup are rotated out of a team of about 10 or so. There is always 2 levels of escalations available.
