If something goes wrong, devs have to give up their weekend to fix the issues, leading to burnout and dissatisfaction.

Correct in spirit, but the words "burnout" and "dissatisfaction" are weasle words that spinless middle managers use.

The correct terms are "abruptly quiting without notice leaving the company fucked and our stock worthless".

A minor point, but worth clarifying.

As someone who has experienced burnout before: that’s exactly what it looks like.
