Nitpick: that's how it should work, and how HN trys to make it work (hence the so-called tribalism), but in many cases those rushing fools get a golden parachute and a cushy retirement while leaving a straw-stuffed limited-liability corporation to be "held accountable" for liabilities it no longer has the assets to meet. And that's if they can't use superior legal funds, PR, and lobbying to shift those liabilities onto engineers or dismiss them entirely.
