> People need to be blamed, and responsibility for actions taken (without covering asses)

This. When people talk about "HugOps", "empathy" and all that when a worldwide incident affecting a huge amount of time critical customers (e.g. trading, hft, cargo, food delivery, etc.) is happening for an hour, it has catastrophic consequences.

I hope the engineers also understand the other side and why we are paying huge sums of cash for their service.

It's empathy towards people managing the incident, not towards the company. It's a sign of solidarity from SRE to SRE, not a sign of solidarity with a company.
