The PMs were beholden to execs. At one point I interviewed for a PM role there, and realized they couldn't afford me to suffer that level of chaos.

DA leadership was either bunkered in R&D projects, or glibly shifting gears every other week. It was mostly torpor-inducing, but occasionally totally exasperating. I imagine it was infinitely worse for the paid staff.
