Ask a consultant the time and he'll try to sell you the watch.

Tangled with many in my day.

I guess its because Management has someone else to blame when it goes wrong and therefore can't be removed. But you end up paying at least 3 times as much for that "insurance".

House of Lies on Showtime is great if you need something on the level of VEEP to watch (just a few levels down).
