Doesn't Nest have like 1200 employees? What are they doing day-to-day? With that many people it seems like you'd almost release a product accidentally.

- robotresearcher 10y agoNobody wants to be blamed for a flop.
- rdtsc 10y agoAh, yes! And because of the current team and structure of management, everyone involved, consciously or unconsciusly knows that it will be nothing but a flop. They make a move, they lose. They don't do anything they lose as well, it will just take longer. So they chose the second option.
- simonswords82 10y agoInfinite monkeys in a room armed with type writers will eventually write Shakespeare (or release a new product) but it'll take a very long time. Nest needs to innovate and rapidly evolve products very quickly to keep ahead of the market, which it seems includes their colleagues (madness). Given a team of that size and complexity nothing but the best management will get products out the door.
