What dasil003 said. The type of company making terrible choices with a cloud provider will not hire and empower a good Ops team. If the company doesn't hire a couple of experienced Ops people to manage their could infrastructure, why do you think they will do a good job hiring a team? You can shoot your self in the foot with any gun. However, one path requires many more choices, more people, and more process to get it right. If they can't get the simpler path right, than what makes you think they will be able to go down the more complex path? For my experience, the average company with on premises servers with a Ops staff is horrible, unsustainable, overpriced, insecure and failing.
