The last bad one I had is the reason I left that job. My managers after that were promoted and thankfully replaced with good to great managers.

That would take at least 3 crew just to hold it down

I once worked at a place like this. An exec insisted on making this elaborate video wall room at great cost so we could "keep an eye on things' but after tons of money, effort, and time having contractors try to make it work (even though we literally had TWO in house teams that are AV experts), it got torn down!

It was a mess from start to finish and cost tens of thousands of dollars if not more. Even during the times everything WAS working, people staffing it mostly didn't use it because the screens were all highly visible to anyone walking by regardless of what they were authorized to see or do. "War room" staffers had to use their laptops anyways because of some of the information displayed, which also meant they had to sit facing AWAY from the big expensive screen array or people walking by could see THEIR laptop screens.

The whole room pretty much existed solely for this one exec to try and impress people, he would walk them by or into this room and say something like, "This is where it all happens!" (it wasn't) or "This is our nerve center, welcome to the War Room!" (it wasn't our "nerve center" either) but the guy pretty much never had a clue as to what was actually going on or what people were actually doing. He eventually got retired after the new president caught on to all the crazy bullshit he was doing, but it took YEARS to get the guy out. Everyone was thrilled when he was finally gone.
