I can only speak for my experience at Amazon, and Facebook. So, fellow FAANGers, have you ever felt many teams and engineers waste time solving small unnecessary problems, or arguing over tiny details that don't matter?

Do senior managers and directors sometimes artificially inflate the size of their orgs just so they could grow because that's how they get promoted?

Ever felt we sometimes artificially create unnecessary bureaucracy, then create more processes, bureaucracy, and roles (more TPMs) to work around the bureaucracy we created?

Do we become less efficient working in big tech? is less sometimes more?
