I work on an application that's probably about as large as Cars.com and we've never run into an issue that was caused by phoenix or elixir specifically. We've had to write a few things in house that may be available off the shelf in other languages, but it's never been especially difficult or time consuming. Most of us are average devs, and it the tools just work. We love how easily we can run things in parallel and we have a lot of soft real time problems that the language makes trivial.

We also onboard a lot of people with no elixir experience, and most of them are committing code within a day or two. The docs are great and the surface area is pretty small. On boarding just isn't an issue.
