Palantir is just CGI or Accenture or Booz Allen or IBM, but focused on Defence, Security etc.. They have devs with 'clearance' and the 'vibe and BS' of a Silicon Valley firm. So their BS is more focused than Accenture BS. To be somewhat less cynical - almost all companies have difficulty with IT. I worked at a large handset maker that did some seriously important things, and our IT was delerious. It was as bad as a random cracker company. To do internal reporting, data warehousing, etc we were incompetent. Even companies that are able to transition their core product offers to being more 'tech' still lack operational technical capability. It's hard, and there's so much churn it's difficult to even tell 'who is good, who is not, how much it should really cost'.
