I generally agree with what you say. Except that I think it's more likely a red flag for the author of the article, not necessarily the company (but of course could be), depending on whether which side had the greater authority to set or influence the deadlines. Sometimes it's easier said than done though. At some point of seniority you basically have to make the engineering estimates whether features/tasks could be done within a deadline. If you made a mistake, you might end up having to own it.
