Also if they becomes PMs or PEs trusting the people that work for you and relying on their expertise rather than agenda pushing (though that really isn't limited to any profession and there are lots of terrible PMs and PEs out there).

But putting an average engineer in charge instead of Joe Cici would like be an improvement.
