If anything Jurassic park is basically a lesson in properly vetting your staff.
Everything that happened happened because Dennis was the only IT guy and basically could do whatever he wanted with zero oversight. It's not like the dinosaurs were going to break out on their own, even the raptors only got out because the fences were turned off.
It still comes down to Hammond not paying Nedry enough although he claimed he "spared no expenses".
Spared no expense on HR, contact lawyers, and icecream.
He was getting paid peanuts for designing and building an essential system for the running of the park all on his own, working for a guy that constantly bragged about sparing no expense.
IIRC the only interaction between Hammond and Nerdy went something like "you should have negotiated a better contract! Stfu gbtw", which can pretty much sum up the whole wealth divide between the owners who gain most of the benefit and the workers who actually do the things under capitalism. Except if they aren't getting the better of everyone on average, they just shut the whole thing down or find others that they do get the better of.
