I worked at a small software firm where the DBAs and programmers were one and the same. The problem came about when one of the owners decided that IT should report into the head DBA/Programmer. Unmitigated disaster. The head DBA truly believed that he understood servers and networks because he had written code that ran on them. It lasted about 3 weeks.
The crazy part was when they tried the same thing a few years later. It lasted about 6 weeks
