It was more symptomatic of Radio Guys being a very old company, and Programmers with Hats being fairly new (and still run by the original programmers). My experience has been that as a company gets older and bigger, its management tends to lose its grip. It isn't just a British thing - I have seen it in other companies, it's just that it is usually only visible from the inside of the company.
