It is incorrect to suggest that lack of automation is the issue at hand. From where I stand, it's the pressure for deliverables and frequent oncall responsibilities that stress me out the most.

Show me one counterexample first.

I've joined a bunch of companies, and there' two kinds of companies to me: Lacking of automation and pushing with automation.

One example: CI/CD process where developer only cares about the code, not CI/CD configuration.

You're so disconnected from reality that I think you should simply stop. If not for your own credibility then because of empathy to people suffering or who have suffered from a burnout. You're just adding an insult to an injury.
It's correct. It's the reason i stop working for enterprise if possible. Because i know the truth. Noone cares about automation, and there's no reason you're the guy who do automation for free (with the risk of delaying your JIRA stories).

There's a reason to stay out of a mess.

There's no empathy for intentionally not releasing the burnout for teammates besides the selfish reason to keep your seat forever. It's the selfishness at best. And no, for my cultural reason, i have no reason to stay there to feed lazy assholes.
