    More so.

    You’re not giving any context here, but a guy taking care of the building is usually not connected at all to the business. I’ve always seen them as contracted from a company that does exactly that. They don’t know what the business is doing and have no responsibility for it.

    As a software developer, I once interviewed with a spam company. I guess it was pretty obvious what I thought of them, so I did not get the job. I would have gone for it, because I needed the job, but would not have been b happy and would have used my time to find work somewhere more acceptable

      At large enough companies, for any given component, many or most engineers will also have nothing to do with it. It could be that you work on an observably tool kit or some such and how no clue how evil X product works. I hesitate to blame engineers either. But management, or c-suite; those are the bad guys.
