Glad to hear that $FANG has similar incompetency as every other mid-tier software shop I've ever worked in. Your project progression sounds like any of them. Here I was thinking that $FANG's highly-paid developers and project management processes were actually better than average.

They can afford to try a lot, why try better?

Same, I think this one post may have cured me of a life long (unrealized) obsession with working at FANG.

Those processes take longer, and waste more money. At no point will I believe they don’t waste it in the first place.
