There is always perceived cost cutting of outsourcing.

There is always "we fired 20% of the people, now their workload is on your shoulders or you will also be fired".

There is always "here is a book titled 'use agile to deliver twice as fast' now the deadline is in 3 months instead of 6 or else".

The only defense against that is having more options.

Yeah, in the end it's about always having a plan B at any time.

Wheels gotta move I guess, it's in their nature after all.
