Very underrated comment. The more nepotisitic/tribal an org is, the worse this gets. Everyone's just pushing the problems below.

The only way around this for devs is to say No to solving their problems and letting management deal with the fallout (loss of customers/revenue)

Yes, very good comment; pity to those of who have lived it. I am living it now! It's kind of fascinating really, to see the coping mechanisms in a dying company. The people on the lower rungs seeming to go along with the same charade over and over, going through the motions. Waiting for another storm to pass, to get home to their families at the end of the day.
