I see a similar situation in the large corporation I work for and it's toxic. It all boils down to leader worship. There's a huge segment of managers that are completely unwilling to tell anyone higher in the chain of command "no" or push back on anything even when the request is unrealistic. The lack of a backbone means that teams are continually in emergency mode, trying to push something through so that some manager can prove to some person above them that they can deliver things. The result is that whatever was asked for is usually delivered in a subpar way, but all the boxes were checked and everyone thinks it was done. it becomes another thing on the pile of technical debt that will be dealt with another day.
