    I think that yes, the execs are greedy, but there are also two other problems:

    1. Shareholders are also greedy, arguably even more greedy than company employees (executives are employees).

    2. Developers have been overhiring, which is generally a symptom of someone not knowing what they are doing thinking that hiring more people makes things faster/better when actually the opposite is the case.

    Out of touch, greedy executives that dont know what theyre doing, trying to meet unreasonable demands of shareholders? Yeah, perfect storm material.
