Hammer meet nail. I currently work in a more traditional "ops" team with our cloud infrastructure dictated by development (through contract hires at first, and now a new internal DevOps team). It's mind boggling how poorly they run things. It goes so deep it's almost issues at product design stage. There's now a big project to move the responsibility back into our team because it's not fit for purpose.

I think an operations background gives you a strong ability to smell nonsense and insecurity. The DevOps team seems to be people who want to be 'developers' rather than people who care about 'ops'. Yaml slinging without thinking about what the yaml actually means.
