How much is your on call pay?

We are paid $140 to be on call for 1 week straight all hours. The expectation is to be able to log on and work the ticket within an hour. If you’re paid hourly you still get paid your hourly rate for the time you work but salary employees do not get any extra pay. My company is adamant $140 is already too high, I’m trying to get some other examples so I can make a better case the current arrangement is not enough. This is an IT job as well.
