I too have been in the inside and I was one of those types who fought to do the right thing. The reason was much more simple to understand than this article…companies are run by sociopaths, psychopaths, Narcissists and doing the right thing is not their motivation. That said, while it might be easy to point the finger at them, they only get their power as soon as many kiss their ass and accept the wrong. You know…sort of like what is happening in the USA and most other country’s. We have a massive problem and we are not even really talking about it. Instead some want to blame capitalism and while sure it is part of the problem, you better believe and centralized human group has and will suffer from the same issues to varying degrees.
I dunno about the power part. They control the money. And they work with thier counterparts at other companies to make sure they continue to control the money. I too spoke out about doing the right thing to the PMs. My boss told me to knock it off because the leadership controls my pay, and they listen to the PM.
