In teams that I’ve lead and the work I do, I’ve tried to really make sure that 1 person is not solely responsible for anything. We are a team, at least 2 people are involved between dev/review/testing/deployment, and we own success & failure together.

You want constructive criticism in a safe space, which is before the accident. So work with your fellow devs before you release code to minimize prod mistakes. If you’re not in a workplace where that’s possible then more mistakes will happen, and that’s okay too. If you’re getting blamed for more mistakes happening in an environment that has been set up for more mistakes to happen? Idk, get out or ignore it because collective insanity has taken over.

Yes if you’re the single point of failure - then it’s the companies fault and not you when things go wrong. Most places try to save money and take shortcuts. Just accept they took the risk and they get what they pay for.
