Also, it's not like the problems were only caused by Nedry or his team being understaffed or incompetent. Quite the opposite. He was a bad actor. And a bad actor in the right position can cause a lot of damage. He purposefully sabotaged the park in a way that couldn't have been easily averted.

It was a low bid contract and Nedry was complaining about how he underbid and wanted more money. So Hammond was delusional when he said they spared no expense, he cheaped out on labour.
