They are not. On the surface revenues keeps growing, profits are enormous but underneath there are virtually no new product lines. If you look at Microsoft of 1990s, there were new $1B business each year - MSSQL, Sharepoint, Dynamics etc etc. For Apple, Jobs made it a point for one new product line every 2-3 years. For Google, you had new stuff like Gmail, Maps keep coming. Now its mostly barren land. Amazon had a lot going on with Alexa, pharmacy, Fire tablets, prime video etc. Don't expect these stuff 2-3 years down the road with new business suit at the helm. There are real impact of not having a "product person" at helm. Business suits will squeeze out revenues and profits no matter what but there are no more tech that truly leap frogs existing art.
