Entropy and incompetence

There seems to be a serious problem in Portugal within the upper and middle managment profession, from government institutions to private companies.

In my experience, specific to software development, project management roles are given to people with no tech background or experience.

Their main objective is to just have something to sell at the next management meeting, a quick win to feed the FOMO, to get financed or get a pat on the back. It is not to build something really useful with quality in mind.

In most cases you have triple the managers than you have developers or the people that do the actual work and sustain the product.

The amount of burocracy and entropy created by non-stop bursts of random irrelevant information that turn into tasks with no planning or meaningful insight, project an image that work is being done. But its just an ilusion created to hide the general incompetence going around.
