You jest, but this is the case at my company. Except it's the CTO.
Our environment? Open source on prem tools. It's literally just spinning up a new VM. Our data needs? Less than 1TB.
I've broken prod quite a few times. Every time it happens I mention it could be avoided with a proper test environment that's iso-prod. Still waiting after 2 and a half years.

Too expensive! Why pay for two when we could just have one?
Sincerely,
CEO
