This sounds like a company that does not learn from errors, looks for "junior engineer" scapegoats instead of looking for the systemic processes that facilitated this, and not a great place to stay tbh. This was a chance for the company to reflect on some of their processes, and take measures that will avoid similar issues (and the steps to take are pretty obvious). And the description of what happened afterwords show a probably toxic environment.
It should never be like this, and especially in this case I blame OP 0%. This is something that could happen to anybody in such circumstances. I have not deleted a full database, but have had to restore stuff a few times, I have made mistakes myself and have rushed to fix problems caused by others' mistakes and each single time the whole point and discussions was about improving our processes so that this does not happen again.
