Yes, Please! Burnout culture is horrible and we need to respect our work/life balance. If you work for a company where you can't say "I'll get to that first thing tomorrow" then you should be working somewhere else.
Unreasonable expectations usually starts with management though. I had a "boss" who was very much my senior as far as age but had zero management experience and his benchmark for value was Lines of Code and Cards Completed instead of better value metrics like features delivered, velocity, bugs reported, etc. Needless to say, I didn't stay very long.
