I haven’t seen this be due to one set of incompetents since the turn of the century. What I have seen is this caused by politics, change management politics, and shortsighted budgetary practices (better to spend thousands of dollars per day on developers going idle or building bizarre things than spend tens on infrastructure!).

In such cases, the only times where firing someone would help would be if they were the C-level people who created and sustained that inefficient system.
