Unfortunately the people element is too big to remove from this equation and should be included in your risk model. Another thing to consider is that people are just generally assholes and will take advantage of a system like this. Like I said in a previous comment, I was part of a small group that joined a company, and the outcome was awful for everybody included.  Disaster isn&#x27;t really relevant here, everything started to fall apart, people quit included me, morale was awful, etc. When I joined, all I wanted was to have an interesting job, but they wanted an &quot;alliance&quot; with me. It was fucked in the most Machiavelian, spoiled brat way. I can&#x27;t imagine that won&#x27;t happen elsewhere. Anecdata, n=1, blah blah.<p>Incidentally, their DR test at one point wasn&#x27;t really a valid DR test, since it didn&#x27;t do of any sort of rigor. Not to mention the other DR tests&#x2F;events I&#x27;ve seen at other companies ;).
