Marvel has control of choosing general story outlines, MCU liaison characters, and determining the characterization and casting of the villains. Sony has control of the supporting cast (which explains Zendaya et all being nothing like their comic counterparts and all being "young star power"), their level of inclusion (essentially making them all important in Far From Home), and the script as a whole.
You'll notice that while the solo films are shitty, the villain casting and motivations were good, the arcs they adapt are interesting enough, and the MCU characters act their part while the supporting cast, their importance, and the general script tends to be garbage. I wouldn't put it past Pascal, based on all of the e-mail leaks and Hollywood reputation, if the villains constantly pining over Stark was her idea to marry the franchise to the MCU in order to make a quick buck.
