I don't understand your comment about trusting engineers?
Engineers that RedHat has are probably the best. The problem (sort to speak) is that their job is to think about engineering problems, and they we'll indeed do everything to make what they do the best. But sometimes, doing best isn't also the best (or at least is too risky) for the survival of the company which, IMHO, requires another type of thinking... the one that has more to do with strategic decisions and includes more than just engineering stuff.
And, in the end, every engineer will certainly find a job somewhere else. It would be completely different story if the faith of employees would be bound to the faith of the company.

From the previous article comments it makes it seem that Redhat engineers are not happy about the developments. Redhat management should listen to them and understand why they are unhappy.

If you are thinking of this, consider that the sample is necessarily biased. Whoever gave those data was effectively leaking internal information; employees that are okay or neutral about the decision would think twice about that.
