And likely they will be unable to build a good product, ever. You can't have decision making dissonance at the most senior levels of your organization and make good products.
Resources alone solve no product problems, leadership is far more important. I know of a $10B company whose most important feature (by far) of it's consumer facing app fails well over half the time customers tried to use it. This problem has been known for nearly a year and at no point has the team been allowed to make fixing it a priority.

See BankSimple and Standard Treasury (and their abysmal exits to real banks, BBVA and Silicon Valley Bank, respectively) to see what that path looks like. Having a great product alone is not good enough.
