Or it's the best option they have at that moment.

At my old job, my temporary manager was the Jenkins CICD guy who knew nothing that wasn't posted at StackOverflow.

To give OP credit, the manager that was hired, knew nothing about nothing. He would take his dog for a walk during a system crash :)

The new CTO was also incompetent, he spent more time with the business team than knowing how to write a simple script.

One incompetent hired another incompetent.

The company's warehouse firewall was exposed to the internet, their response?? pfSense is safe enough :)
