No. 
This might be attributed to

a) We do fine pitch only if we have to

b) Our pcbs typically don't exyperience much thermal stress.

c) We use solder SN100C (because it performs much better when manually 
soldering than the usual SAC alloys)

This PDF suggests, there is no problem with this particular solder:
