Imagine being the engineers in the middle of this. It's one thing that your incident is so bad it makes the news, it's another entirely when it is so bad the CEO resigns.

Interesting point, especially given all the bad IT practices at Optus that have hit the news the last year or so - and that's just the bits we know about.

Smells like management have a lack of respect for IT and there's a distinct lack of seniority. Telstra can afford to employ the best - and have to - to satisfy the requirements of their large government/defence customer base. Optus IT seem to be a bunch of Yes people who do the wrong thing frequently, probably under pressure from the hierarchy.
