I used to be a part of a 40-person strong team trying to deliver a glorified contact form based on an MVP which was originally done in Ruby on Rails in three months. Spent half a year there, after which my sub-team's component was removed from scope and the sub-team in question dissolved. I'm still in touch with most of my squad several years after that, as we had great chemistry, but the project itself reportedly went way over time and budget(despite shrinking the staff to less than half), costing the department that was responsible for it a significant chunk of its budget. I guess the real use of the project were all the friendships we made along the way.
