I know very well what happens when you try to present unpleasant facts to managers, and what happens when they refuse to listen to you and take political expedience over sound engineering judgement.

I just left a company for that very reason. I don’t intend to spend the next few years attempting to salvage a doomed project based on bad assumptions by management. It’s always scary when a lack of knowledge is replaced by the mystical yes man’s assurance of success.

My son is going through this very experience right now after reporting to management that their insistence that some unsuitable compressors that they just happened to have sitting around be used on a project would result in an unacceptable performance, eventualy total failure and the OEM would dead stop not warrant or support the equipment if used in this way.

So they found a Ukrainian engineer who said it would work brilliantly and his contract which expires March 1st isn't being renewed.
