It was undoubtedly true quite some time ago (and it could be suggested that referring to them as only "2nd rate" would have been generous). Part of that is understandably due to the fact that the same man sits atop the organizational chart.
Not sure how long it has lingered. I think we have seen as recently as the JJo move to Houston.
Every improvement Marvin mentioned in the OP was directly related to culture.
