I disagree. They will hire a consulting company to do a root cause analysis. The Ha'vad grads from McKinsey will swoop in, determine that the past doesn't matter, you need to get to black and to get to black, the St. Louis team needs to go, along with 20% of the following 7 teams....
No, they don't care. And never will.

Then they just rewrite it again shittily. lol
When nobody cares about you get the point sooner or later where you can't ship, they've probably launched a product but there's still a lot more to ship in future. Eventually they become so mired in technical debt that they care.
When they realize they've invested a hundred million dollars in something that now has no value? They care. (especially if it's a turd before it gets out the door)
When a start up comes along and eats their lunch because they aren't weighed down be legacy code? They care.
When they lose revenue because they can't keep customers happy? They care.
The problem is that the professionalism of software developers doesn't allow them to learn these lessons early and hard enough.
