I don’t work there but have heard from people who used to be there... that team is full of program managers who call themselves designers and live in delusion that Steve Jobs have possessed them. This is why you see funcky UX which pretends to be minimal, different and at the same time horrible to use. To complement these deluded people, there are highly paid architects (“partner” levels) who can’t code but make stupid decisions on how someone should code. Top brass there are usual managers/VPs who can’t code, can’t design and rarely depends on their own products. This is how bad software is made. Teams is perfect antithesis of old Microsoft which used to be full of brilliant wiz kids that can pull miracles and where PMs were kept to minimum and instructed to stay out of their way.
