The picture reminds me of the company I worked for. When a program goes “red” or having problems. You will get management folks come in from the East Coast and you get more management than you ever wanted. They institute mandatory unpaid overtime, work on weekends, any and all vacation is canceled. Lastly, the dress code gets more formal like no casual Friday or weekends too.
I never worked on a “red” program but hearing from other, it was horrible. As pertaining to this picture, East Coast management is equivalent to Government Intervention.
