It’s all in the execution. Not all multi-billion dollar companies can build and iterate on product quickly enough. Internal politics and promotions mean that what’s best for the individuals isn’t (always) what’s best for the company.

Not all hope is lost. Do your homework as others have suggested and get an idea of how successful they’ve launched new products before. Set deadlines and think through the worst case scenarios so you can be honest with the progress. Lastly, try out their product and see for yourself once it’s out.

I managed to get beta access to the product. It is about 70-80% of what we planned to deliver on our MVP.

The thing is, we're still in the validation stage. We can abandon this idea completely without any harm. I'm not sure if what we managed to find is enough for us to decide to put our effort elsewhere or not
