Ask HN: What to do when the company is stretched thin?

I joined this company that has a public image of a well put together company. They have a range of products with a fairly large user-base (in the few millions).

However, once inside I find that each product is kept together by a skeleton crew or sometimes by people who can only work on it part time since they're handling multiple projects.

It feels like the bus factor for most projects is one (or very close to one).

I don't know how I feel about the situation, and management response to my question/concerns "it is what it is".

Do you think this is a huge red flag?
