My friend, you seem to have a higher opinion of middle management than I; they seem to be frantically adopting AI almost as fast as the C Suite to me, and pushing for every "cut costs and defer security features" measure that they can.

Yeah, the 'just following orders' brigade. Also, C is for Charlatan, it was decided, by them, through their ineptitude.

Depends on the company and its culture. Sometimes they're the worst, others they're quite good.

Size can be a factor (easier to hide in a larger crowd), but any size group can allow itself to be led by feckless fecking fecks if they don't push back.
