Like many others here, at the company I work for you get nothing.
I do one on-call shift as primary per week and one as secondary. I then also cover a week every six weeks or so.
If shit really hits the fan, them work is pretty cool about taking some time back, but we're far from micromanaged as it is, so we can just kind of make it work.
I'd say an incidency probably occurs on around half of my primary shifts (and I've yet to ever do anything as secondary), and nearly always it was something I could resolve within one hour.
Every dev at the company is on the rota once they've got a few month's experience.
