> So you need more engineers because you hired more middle managers? Companies often implement more process for good reason. The antithesis of old Facebook's Move Fast And Break Things is to have policies that ensure good security, stability, accessibility, privacy, internationalization, meeting legal requirements, etc. and that usually means processes to ensure that eager engineers and product managers actually meet those policies, instead of rushing to launch. It's easy to scoff at process when you're a small company or startup whose mistakes will go largely unnoticed unless you suddenly go viral. If you're a Big Tech Company, accidentally messing up security or privacy somewhat means getting a front page article on The Verge detailing your crimes. Working at Google now, there's plenty of process involves in developing and launching a thing, but I can't really say any of the pieces are without merit.
