Last year I worked as a dev at an ad tech firm that apparently had a money printer. The amount of waste, particularly in their cloud architecture, was staggering. Prestigious office in a very expensive city. I noticed that they hired from big-name companies known for being staggeringly wasteful like Uber.
Just one company, sure, but it did make me wonder about adtech in general.
