Also regular devs don't realize but frequently internal IT departments charge obscene amounts of money for managed services.

Devs look at Digital Ocean or Hetzner VM costing $10 for a ton of RAM, storage and bandwidth when the same thing internally in a bank or other big enterprise can cost $100-150. AND be delivered in 3 months, if it's ever delivered.

Absolutely, bargaining for cheap service fees from these suppliers, only to be charged greatly for simple hardware and anything outside the standard list.
