Yes that sounds like someone who doesn't want to have to wait two weeks to get approvals to create resources in a Dev environment.
But as the team lead, I already had the final say into what code went into production and could do all kind of nefarious acts if I desired. Yes we had a CI/CD process in place with sign offs. But there was nothing stopping me from only doing certain actions based on which environment the program was running in.
I've seen what happens to people who are "just developers" that spend all their life working in large companies where they never learn anything about database administration, Dev ops, Net ops, or in the modern era - cloud administration. They aren't as highly valued as someone who really is full stack - from the browser all the way down to architecting the infrastructure.
Why wouldn't I choose a company if given that option that lets me increase my marketability, and gives me hands on experience in an enterprise environment instead of just being a "paper tiger" who has certifications but no experience at scale?
