Like bureaucracy, the complexity of your tech stack grows to accommodate the number of people available to work on it. Go crazy on the hiring, and what do you expect all those people to do all day?

That's a very uncharitable views, and it could be argued the other way around, that the hiring occurs to support the need for more people in engineering. I'm not certain which way around it goes with Uber, but I've seen both.
