> Behind all the fluff, there is a simple explanation: they save insane amounts of money. Yes pretty much. It's disappointing that companies cannot be honest with their employees and just say that simply. People can understand price per sq. foot, it's not inverting binary trees or building rockets. But when they are told stuff like "We can _all_ collaborate better! Look at all this (busy) work happening!". It insults people's intelligence. It's like giving a kid who doesn't like potatoes, carrots and telling them they are just orange potatoes. Yes, I have tried that with my 2 year old and it works great. But doing it with engineers who you trust to build your product is just crazy.
