"Breaks Down How His Engineering Org Works" is an exaggeration. "Offers a glimpse" would have been more appropriate:
1000+ engineers that include (perhaps a majority) of people working on reliability/operations.
Mobility - engineers _can_ move every quarter to a team that has an open position
Peer-feedback (360?) promotions based system (this is rather popular)
I guess I was hoping for something more about the actual structure and interactions, but it's mostly saying it's not too centralized, nor too distributed and that it's "like a school" and they're using lean/agile methodologies.
