Pasting this from another comment:

Poetry is still rough around the edges but I think the core experience is great and it's well on its way to be a very popular tool.

Before using it at work, we are waiting on waiting on https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry/issues/2610 (alternate repository not getting used for transitive dependencies) and ideally this https://github.com/python-poetry/poetry/issues/1556 (disable SSL verify for alternate repositories)

If you don't use your own PyPi for a bunch of internal packages, it works great imo. One more wish item would be having absolute path dependencies instead of only relative path.

I hope the second is never changed - it’s 2020, time to start authenticating the servers you’re downloading and executing code from

Internal doesn’t mean secure

Have to agree, and if it is truly internal why are you doing SSL?
SSL for internal services seems to be becoming common these days and that's not a bad thing. Corporate/institutional information warfare is becoming a pretty big deal now (see all the US hospitals being infiltrated) so hardening on the inside to at least slow down an internal threat is not a bad thing at all.
