I think 1 month notice is really fair. Your job is not slavery so not that you have to work for them for 6 month out of "guilt" or because they haven't thought about bus factor. After all, it's management's fault that they don't have someone to take care of your responsibilities in case of your illness for instance. I know that finding good SREs is extremely hard but this works both ways IMO: if they can fire you with 1 month notice, you can politely assume that all your actions are fair with 1 month notice as well. Personally I think it means a lot how they ask you to stay. It worth nothing to them to ask you politely, as a favor to stay a bit longer, e.g. 6 or 8 weeks. I would consider that scenario, because shit happens. But if that was more like an ultimatum I don't think company is worth it.
