I would quit too. It's too fucking dangerous that if I'm a developer I'm going to get blamed because of an institutional failure.
At that point, you really have no choice but to downsize the company itself to get control over the problem, or just dump funds into repairing your IT bureaucratic infrastructure.
I'm never a huge fan of bureaucracy, but you need a competent and functional bureaucracy to do anything at scale.
Too much bureaucracy is also not good, agreed but Jesus, thousands of fingers in the pie is not healthy for the final product. Those tiktok hoes showing their "day in a life of an X intern" where x stands for twitter, facebook etc has shown me that it was probably 50% adult daycare and the rest actually useful people who work on stuff that keep the ball rolling.
I don't work as a developer but I would probably quit, too. It's not worth keeping something that's on lifesupport alive for that long just to keep festering. Twitter is just one, I don't want to know how bad it is @ facebook, google etc.
Apparently I'm in a lucky part of the industry, because this is fucking insanity to me.
That is correct, yes.
Same, I know multiple people who would just up and quit if this was the standard. We aren't too big but we have to take security very seriously.

I'm not trying to white-knight bureaucrats here, but I'm saying I do think it has a reason to exist.
And yeah, if I saw how Twitter was run, I wouldn't risk it. Golden handcuffs are cute for a moment, but not forever.
Yeah, I'm at a mismanaged small game studio, and we still have solid security barriers between testing and production environments.
