Individual higher ups are fractious amongst themselves for personal reasons and conflicting goals. But each is highly skilled, controlled, and focussed.
Each likely tightly rules a entire collection of experts on nearly every subject and technique conceivable.
Their bottom teir spies can easily be locals with no idea of the cabal at large or even the multiverse at all. Best if they are, really.
Machiavelian string pullers.
