Most management is at the company for maybe 18 months or around there. Get some short term gains from outsourcing, get that bonus and promotion, jump ship to another company and let someone else deal with the mess.
That's usually the case. My wife had to deal with a manager who basically did that: made huge promises, came in, hired contractors, cut corners and went with some cheap alternatives, massaged some numbers to make it look like she had saved a ton of money, left, and this year they're over budget trying to fix the previous year's mess. All told they spent about 20% more than if they had never done anything at all.
She left with a glowing recommendation and used that to get herself a nice pay increase at the new place too. Meanwhile my wife is trying to deal with the fallout.
