Shit idiots with enthusiasm could be trained, mentored, molded into assets for the company.

Ala an apprenticeship structure or something similar, like how you need X years before you’re a journeyman at many hands on trades.

But uh, nope, C suite could order something like that be implemented at any time.

They don’t though.

Because that would make next quarter projections not look as good.

And because that would require actual leadership.

This used to be how things largely worked in the software industry.

But, as with many other industries, now finance runs everything, and they’re trapped in a system of their own making… but its not really trapped, because… they’ll still get a golden parachute no matter what happens, everyone else suffers, so that’s fine.
