Currently working with IBM contractors, can confirm this. It’s not even an institutional type problem, it’s like they deliberately hire arseholes.
Back to this article though, tis project presumably was run under PRINCE2 methodology which is very rigid. I know it makes a good headline but a handwritten note would have literally no effect. There’s a whole change control process you need to go through. That note is just somebody covering their own arse rather than actually doing their job.
