You have been misinformed on how the internal workings of a CG studio work. I work for a studio that produces 3d assets for Disney, Matel, Nick Jr. And a bunch of others.
The employees do what they are told. I have, on many occasions brought solutions to problems in the pipeline only to be ignored or not taken seriously by management. 2 months later we are replacing those elements me and my team flagged, and staying at work for extra hours to get it done. This takes away from the production time we are allotted which also detract from the quality of future assets, as manaent NEVER admits wrong doing.
CCP is no different, it's all about numbers and not quality of work. All they are concerned with is deadlines and financial forecasts. If CG companies listened more to the boots on the ground, they would not be in the position they are.
Classic case of poor management.

Classic case of poor management. And when you support that **** management you enable it.
I don't hire, nor fire management. You don't understand the politics I have described. I don't enable management to make dumb decisions. They do that themselves by ignoring the problems presented to them. I'm in no position to twist arms of people who have never opened 3d rendering software but insist things be done their way.
If you work for a living, you'll understand this.

Classic case of poor management. Have you got any evidence that this is the case at CCP?
A canceled project is evidence enough of poor management. They hired staff that either couldn't do the job or asked too much.
If the building of a house was cancelled, it's on the developer, not the crew. It's why the captain goes down with the ship, because it was the leaders fault they ran a ground.

I don't just walk away and throw my career out the window to make a point they won't take seriously. I commit myself to my work because the final result is on my resume.
I'm a modeller, not the project manager. It is not the responsibility of the troops to give commands but to follow them. If the PM on WoD made mistakes, then the project will suffer.
Trust me, if I could fire management on my current project I would. But they don't exactly tell their bosses the truth in order to keep their job. They will lay blame however they choose. I think WoD and the redesign of dust before launch is proof enough of failing to reach milestones.
