I feel this.

Every month or two, we get notifications along the FINAL WARNING lines, telling us about some critical system about to be deleted, or some new system that needs to be set up Right Now, because it is a Corporate Standard (that was never rolled out properly), and by golly we have had enough of teams ignoring us, the all powerful Board has got its eyes on you now.

It's a full time job to keep up with the never-ending churn. We could probably just spend all our engineering effort being compliant and never delivering features :)
