+1. I think it is the same on spending and income: you must understand what scales with what. The number of coffee machines scales with the number of employees (and office layout), but the cloud service spend depends on many factors. If nobody ever was asked to keep an eye on that, it can run away quickly and it will be hard to regain control. I've seen people routinely reserve entire vCPUs in Kubernetes for tiny test systems, instead of 150m which would have easily sufficed.
