Everything depends on the story.
The only hard and fast rules I have as a reader are:
If there's a change of POV every paragraph, I bail.
If they write sloppy (head-hopping) third-person limited and think they're writing omniscient, I bail.
If the changes happen with scene changes or chapters, and it's done
well
then it's all cool.
