You've hit the nail on the head for me at my current place of work. The only alternative I have here is Scala, which I wouldn't choose, but higher quality ecosystem and community, and closer to Rust which I'm enjoying at home, so am thinking of doing the switch.

I cannot imagine a scenario where Go would be a better fit for a team of skilled engineers (compared to scala). Maybe ramp up time would be the only thing, but even still the dividends you can reap from scala's more complex abstraction are worth the initial investment as they are applicable to multiple projects (as opposed to learning a complex framework or whatnot).
