In 2007-8, Infosys rubber-stamped several teams with skills they didn't have and delivered some world-class malware to Boeing. Boeing's top finally popped and they threatened to cancel contracts so Infosys hired me to fix it. And I turned it around, restored some confidence, increased quality, and calmed Boeing down after a year.
What did Infosys learn from that? They learned they could KEEP lying and somebody would bail them out. They continued with their resume, billing and visa fraud so I left. A year later Boeing canceled their contracts and the new contractor, Tata, wanted me back but I took the flaky T-Mobile job because of the job title. :)
When you reward lies, you get more lies.
When you reward stupidity, you get more stupidity.
When you punish honesty, you get less of it.
