>Why are megacorps so incomprehensibly clueless about this?

Management by committees. Lots of office politics. Most senior execs have successfully failed upwards. Once every 18 months they let go of people they stick the blame on thereby losing any memory of design decisions.



I feel like I'm currently experiencing failing upwards.

I had a kid recently and have been putting less into my work, mostly just pushing back on asks and delegating because I don't have time.

All of a sudden I have senior management potential haha.

Feels like I'm living in the movie office space
