I was shocked recently when my company, facing some losses, cut the head office staff in half,
And upped manager in house salaries a little, and handed some more responsibility back to the pubs. It's almost like they know what they're doing.

compaines sleep walk bit by bit into being a bit bloated and inefficient in the good times as nobody has to scrutinise to closely
then suddenly money is tight and the dead wood, suddenly sticks out like a sore thumb

This is what's wrong with a lot of companies, and even more so in public sector
Too many unnecessary layers of management. Worst of all are public sector recently outsourced to private (housing, social care, soon the NHS, etc) as there have to be extra "contract managers" etc. That Furness hospital cover-up is just an example of the tip of a very large mountain of gravy trains and arse-covering that sucks funds from where they should be going to - patients.
