Originally, DevOps was about trusting developers with production. But modern DevOps teams operate on the belief that developers can’t be trusted with production.
How is that not just a symptom of poor management?
Surely, if your company makes a living delivering software services, then all employees should be pulling in the same direction when it comes to getting code developed and into production. And surely that's up to management?

This. I've worked at companies where the infra/devops teams were openly hostile to the dev teams. It's incredible that companies like that function, and that management doesn't seem to care, when teams that are supposed to be working together are pointing guns at each other instead.
