Yes, it is quite a fact that enterprise businesses tend to adopt Angular as it has more sort of an enterprise appeal due to its popularity and being backed by Google. I had a friend (F) interview for a FE developer position. He was more of a React adopter and he spoke with the architect (A) of the team. The company was heavily invested into MS technologies (think a lot of WCF Services) F: So, what technology stack are you moving into? A: We wanted to retain as much of our backend WCF stuff, while we move our front-end into Angular. F: So has there been a project that was started? A: Yes, we have started to move 8 of our enterprise apps to Angular. F: Any challenges so far? A: Well, the code seems to become a little too complicated for our developers to work on. We'd like to get it to a cleaner and more maintainable state. F: Have you considered other frameworks? A: Sadly, no. Company has invested more than 2 years in re-designing the app. And besides, Angular is backed by Google, hence, we seem to think that it will be the right tool for the business. We've invested a lot of time as well with it. F: But you are saying that productivity overall is low because the complexities of your Angular code base is taking a toll on your developers? A: Yes, in some sort of ways. There are Angular constructs which just does not make sense. And nipping the warnings and errors in the console is just a task that's too heavy and tedious. Although we like the fact that Angular can play nicely with our backend stuff with very minimal changes required on that side. Practically, the architect was saying that the enterprise adopted Angular due to its immense popularity way back then and being heralded as an Enterprise framework. Although my friend was offered a very good salary (by Canadian standards), he politely declined the offer, after inspection of some of the code base and the challenges that he would be facing.
