Sometimes it seems the people doing the least amount of work make the most money, doesn't it? Coulg be like you said, the feeling of entitlement is making them act that way. They feel like they are so far above everyone else that they have everyone do much of their work for them.
BofA is so funny with titles too… a VP could a team lead like in your case… but I’m a VP and one of the lowest in my area (handful of AVPs as well). In my area it’s my job to make summaries, not ask for them.
That being said, it is often the person doing the heavy lifting with a task that also has to summarize and present findings to a manager — and then that manager presents the summary to a higher up. This phenomenon is pretty standard, though annoying and sometimes disheartening when you feel you aren’t really getting credit for your hard work.
Had a boss that would do this all the time. Literally ignored every single email I ever sent him but would act like the world was coming to an end when his boss asked him for something and he needed me to work on it.
I never addressed it and just tried to ignore him but in hindsight, I think I should have said something about it because it just created resentment.
No way to know, my default would be to think that he wouldn’t but maybe he would have.

Have a chat with them about it. Something like "I've noticed some challenges in getting timely feedback or answers when I need them, and it's impacting my workflow. I was wondering if we could discuss how we can improve our communication for the benefit of the team."
