High availability doesn’t require constant in-person vigilance. And on-call rotations should be brief: 1-2 weeks every quarter or so for any reasonably sized team. Even that is objectionable: the company should have dedicated SRE staff that do that work. 9-5 is possible even at really good paying tech companies. Your manager/org just sounds to be in quite a poor state. I’d suggest looking elsewhere or, if you’re bold, looking at how things can be improved and either spearheading that change possible or making recommendations for it |

This depends on the size of company you work at. I haven't worked on teams large enough to only go on call once a quarter, and many employers weren't big enough to have a dedicated on call team.
