When I mean the people involved I didn't mean mostly the software engineers, like you show they probably have the least contribution to the success of these projects. But the point stands that the products have to exist in the same level of bureocracy and disfunctional leadership, so someone must've been better at dealing with that in the successful products. I definitely had really good experiences as a user of several of AWS's things from the same time. Maybe it's more on product leadership but I was just musing about it. To your original question I haven't worked on such big corporations no, max size I've experienced is ~2k people for ~6 months, other than that 10-400 - so I can see how it's also a different beast. |

For years they have been making sure that their other services like CodeBuild and CodePipeline work with other hosted git providers.
Uncharacteristically, they even support creating third party git repositories with CloudFormation

As far as working for large companies, I would rather get a daily anal probe with a cactus than ever work for a large company/“FAANG” again. I’ve repeatedly ignored overtures from Google (GCP), Microsoft (Azure) and even Oracle (OCP).
