Right back at you. 

You seem to be confusing "the way I think things should be" with "the 
way things actually are."  Including blithely dismissing customer 
requirements.  That's not how you win business, no matter what field 
you're in.

What works at a small scale is unworkable at larger scales.

Meanwhile.  In my nearly twenty years in this field, I've done 
consulting/contract work for about fifteen, including three of mostly 
DoD-related work. Since 2013 I've worked directly for a billion-dollar 
enterprise.

So forgive me for thinking I have an inkling for how large organizations 
actually think and operate.
