I think that Meta was just too early.
I think that software team size per product (how ever you define that) are going to continue to shrink over the next 3 years. You will only need a single product designer/developer/manager per small product eventually.
That said, we will ship a lot more products that will partially make up for that per-product team size shrinkage.

- harshalizee 24d agoYou also end up with a single point of failure. They leave, go on vacation, hit by a bus, etc. and they take every undocumented and tribal knowledge with them.
- bhouston 24d agoMaybe you need a team of product managers/devs/designers then managing a set of apps? So while the ratio is roughly 1:1 for people to apps, you have that redundancy you want.
