While this is obviously a fluff piece, its interesting to note that, what started as a management fuck-up - how the iPad Pro schedule was mismanaged - ended up with the management pushing the engineers to work harder while the reward went to the people responsible for the mess in the first place.

Choice quotes

"Apple had a problem". The blame always seems to be shared. How about - The management fucked up the release schedule.

"That gave most of Apple’s engineers more time."

"It gave a little-known executive named Johny Srouji much less."

So this makes it seem like it was harder on the executive than the people doing the actual work.
