Well done Sir. I've worked as a back office software developer for a large corp for the past 4 years. My role specifically involves working directly with 2 external consulting companies. We have numerous BAs, PMs, Specialists and Directors.... the companies doing the work seem to have minimal technical staff and limited managerial guidance. In short, the developers often appear overworked, stressed and kinda in "don't give a fuck" territory. I have no idea why this is the case...I can't say that you're right - but you raise a valid point.
