This is how Bell Labs was back prior to divestiture, up until the mid 1990s.
There really wasn't one huge Bell Labs, there were literally hundreds of hundred person teams run as if they were little companies, but with a huge bureaucracy providing funding, guidance, and all sharing a knowledge pool.
If you changed teams, you could find a completely different team culture using completely different tools. And like biology, some teams thrived, and some failed.

Some feel like islands in the ocean, while others feel like a townhouse in the city. Some labs are poor and a few are incredibly wealthy. All of them seem to filled with hard working interesting people.
