Road to 350: What Does the US Navy Do Anyway?

Defense acquisitions is less profitable than commercial sales, but at least it makes up for it by burying you under an avalanche of bureaucracy. If that isn't enough, you too can be accused of being a "dirty profiteering contractor".

So. Much. Fun.
I don’t have an issue with any of the folks that do “real work”, whether they turn wrenches or punch in spreadsheets.

It’s the BD types, the boards or anybody else in management positions that actually do try to drive for absurd profitability that annoy the shit out of me.

I don’t hate on them for profit either, just that if they want commercial profits, they should actually behave like commercial sector companies that have to focus on value and long term horizons over short term profits.
