To be honest, as much as I am not a huge fan of Snape, nothing that he does would be all that out of the ordinary for Victorian boarding schools, or at least out of the ordinary in Victorian school stories. And that's where more or less all of Hogwarts as an educational institution comes from. Snape is the dickhead teacher in the classic Victorian school story.

So Hogwarts' hiring practices aren't so much bad as 100 years out of date. The problem is that the way the story changed as it went along means that we take it much more seriously in retrospect.
