Yes, 2 weekend & 1 night call in 5 years is absolutely tolerable. I was at a shop with clever management that fired faster than they backfilled and left the team in such disarray that the replacements started quitting as well. Ended up from a team of 6 down to effectively me & another guy rotating support. I’m talking about getting woken up once or twice a month at 2-3am to join a live incident bridge & debug systems for 2 hours, while being asked to give an update & ETA every 15 minutes, trying not to wake your wife.. and finishing just in time to see the light in the sky. To then head into the office and deal with more fire drills all day and then get asked why feature releases were behind schedule. Current org has auto-generating incident channels in slack which seems clever until you are on rotation and there are 5 different incident channels live at any given time with messaging popping in throughout the day as some are resolved in minutes, hours or days. A lot of this is just management failing the marshmallow test.
