Re:Shopify to lay off 10% of workers in broad shake-up by jokethrowaway on Thursday July 28, 2022 @05:21AM (#32262114)
I've seen companies where a team was managing 10 services and companies where a team was managing one endpoint

The former had some stressed principal engineers, the latter was terribly inefficient and people had 1% productivity.

There is a happy medium, but nobody can manage a large headcounts without splitting in a lot of tiny products.

The core product of shopify is not something that needs 10k engineers for maintenance, even if they can afford that.
