I've seen another cause change of aversion in big organizations: admin bonus pay was tied to application uptime. This created a hilariously dysfunctional situation where the admins locked the developers out of production and refused to deploy any code changes to production, including bug fixes, for several months. Senior leadership in the organization insisted this was the best model to ensure service stability. In the meantime agile competitors ran circles around them until the service became irrelevant, but just look at those uptime numbers!
