1. Things happened. So it had that going for it, which is nice.
2. No stupid children. Also a positive.
3. Many, many stupid adults.
How this collection of circus clowns get jobs working in space? Each and every last one of them is an absolute idiot fully deserving of whats coming to them. Where did they find these morons?
Literally the worst and dumbest 'scientists' ever. Did they scour the C- grads of a local community College and shoot them into space?

When you blackmail people into working for you, you don't always get the best workers.
The crew is a good representation of corporate culture run amuck. In corporations you typically don't end with the most talented people getting ahead. Morso those that "play the game". In a society run by corporations, you'd see a combination of idiot middle managers and naive crew men populating a mission like this. This isn't NASA, it's a corporate mission that involves sacrificing your life to dreg a galactic swamp for bugs that can be commodified.
Wailand Yutani seems to have purposely chosen a crew that can be controlled and disposed of, leaving the only competent one, the security officer, in charge of a bunch of future xeno vessels.
But yes, the crew is dumb.
