Nah. Multiple F500s to include manufacturing, railroad, and aircraft. Pick an industry, been around it.
3 for 3 -- large cloud rollouts clobbered the IT team and blew OpEx out of the water. Saw VPs catch an axe for it, and at least one CTO get nailed with embezzlement accusations due to a "cloud consulting" company he had ties to, and who managed to get a no-bid contract for north of 400k.
Never been anywhere that it wasn't a kind-of-clusterfuck, and the only answers in reply I've seen were No True Scotsman-type "you're just not embracing the cloud and it's changes to processes bla bla bla".
