It was a net gain for them.. They were doing even worse before. They upgraded to a CD style pipeline to AWS instead of monolithic java apps. It was better but nobody realized there were deep and very wrong tech debt. The complacency around this was a big factor in causing me to seek new challenges. The biggest pain points were always not the OSS stuff that was adopted, it was all the “NIH” innovations that were developed because the OSS stuff wasn’t quite right, stuff that “worked” but had no support or allowances for improvement.
