Re: Same everywhere
It can be worse than ending your career. if you're a systemically-important financial institution then a failed DR test can quite plausibly crash the economy. So, not surprisingly, they never get done: they do DR tests but they are very carefully rehearsed events, usually of a tiny number of services, which don't represent reality at all.
The end result of all this is kind of terrifying: in due course some such institution *is* going to lose a whole DC, and will this be forced to do an entirely unrehearsed DR of a very large number of services. That DR will almost certainly fail, and the zombie apocalypse follows.
