Not all of that is dev. After a certain point, a lot of growth comes from marketing, sales, sales engineering, consulting, support, customer success, etc.

I'd wager most core engineering teams in a co like Apollo are probably quite small and focused. I'd guess the cuts are coming from the ancillary teams.

My comment was about the company as a whole, and slightly targeted more towards management. That said, you are right, dev usually has very little control over these kinds of decisions.
