So they're just announcing they have either incompetent product managers, executives who refuse to believe reality, or both.

I hope their developers all find better roles.

For record, as a developer, I have worked many a weekend in my career during crunch. I was never mandated to do so, and I always made up the time afterwards. Only once in my entire career was it 2 weekends in a row, and it's because it was a big that was because of me.
