A lot of really big companies have super flat hierarchies when I worked at one we had MPG2, MPG4 then Senior Management U,T,S
Promotion was brutal you might have 20 MPG4 slots every 18 Months for the entire Division (60k FTE) - just getting to the Board Stage was tough enough.
I think a MPG2 was equivalent to a Captain an S was a Grade 7 (GS15 in US terms I think) Full Colonel

You just proved the GP's point. Whether the hierarchy is flat or not is irrelevant, they still have the bureaucracy around leveling and authority/responsibility.
