I think that it's also common for teams to get painted into a corner trying to use the next great, bleeding edge, thing. I too shudder at the term "Enterprise", but I also shudder when I see a company desperately trying to hire a "NoSQL Expert" at any cost because they built everything around Mongo when a relational database would have been fine.

True enough, though I actually like mongo's document centric database for a lot of use cases. Though with MS-SQL 2016, Postgres + plv8 and binary-json, and rethinkdb, there are better options these days.
