It's a real struggle, the company I work for was just bought out by a megacorp (in the top 1,000 in the world by employee count, and most posters here would recognize their name) and the sheer lack of motivation to learn of many of the devs both at the acquired company and the acquiring company is staggering. Really basic stuff like "instead of package management let's pass DLLs around over email/Slack/wherever and then complain about all the time we have to spend debugging because of version mismatches." It's like they intentionally make things harder on themselves through willful ignorance.
