Can't imagine how frustrating it must be to be in one of these teams working under the Snapchat-feature-clone product strategy of recent FB.

That probably depends on the narrative they're told and their propensity to believe it.
"Copy this Snapchat feature" vs "Stories are a new storytelling medium" vs. "We need to do this because Snap is a grave threat and Facebook's survival depends on your work" are all very different narratives to sell to the team.
