I've had on-call duties in most of my positions for over 25 years. In my experience, if the experience for the on-call person is terrible then you probably need code/infrastructure improvements to make it more stable and/or more hands to do the work.

If the company is not allocating the proper resources to the issue and its affecting you personally then you need to leave. You have a business relationship with work, don't let it become personal.

Exactly, if on-call is hard it means everybody is doing mediocre work therefore you are probably not growing/learning. If you don't want to leave, start thinking of what parts are the worst offenders and tackle those as high priority (harder than it seems).

Hard agree here

100% in agreement. Is how I've been running my teams in all the companies I've been to too.
