Java is great for large engineering teams. It also has a great Standard Library.
I get why a startup might not like Java, but for large scale software projects its not a bad choice.
* Its stable
* Highly Supported
* Easy to find developers
* Fast (compared to other popular programming languages)
* Has a great package library
* Old code will just `work` for years if not decades. New java versions are generally non breaking
