This is a necessity in small organisations and a problem in large ones. A problem because they have to have all the keys, like a janitor; and they tend to end up being treated as either janitors or dictators by the rest of the company. Also tends to have a high "bus factor".
(I semi-jokingly have "Full Stack From the Transistors Upwards" written on my CV, because I have at one time or another in the course of employment done everything from chip design to web design; that doesn't mean I'd be happy to do all of them at once.)
