Meeting company deadlines maintains your market presence. It is a management mandated approach, not a vote by committee approach. It is not very much liked by engineering, who rightfully, wants to release SW that is bug free. Getting good SW engineers to work towards deadlines is harder than it sounds. Losing customers is the best way to having a short term business. If you involve engineering in understanding WHY it is important to release on a schedule, they tend to support the decision.
