Agree
It is more of a company culture (especially at the higher management level) of blaming someone when things go wrong than to resolving the problem.

And these people would rather spend time and effort to find the "scapegoat" than to direct the time and effort to solve the problem. The most common question is usually "Why did this happen?", "Why didn't he check?", "Who is supposed to monitor this".

Why can't they change their mentality to "How do we resolve this?", "How can we prevent the same thing from happening again?".

Well, they are in the upper management position, so there is nothing we at the lower level can do. But I would like to point out that it is very unhealthy because everyone will be busy thinking of ways to protect themselves first in everything they do, instead of doing the productive work itself.
