Beatings will continue until morale improves.
I wonder what kind of post mortem an organization the size of Google does to get even a 1% insight into why things are slow and broken instead of firing people and repeating velocity, agility and nimbleness on a rosary.

Velocity requires years of investment in building better tools and processes, a culture with less meetings and more work, an itch to make things happen but also enough lulls to recover and most importantly learning from past mistakes and reducing repeats.

“…repeating velocity, agility and nimbleness on a rosary” - that was so good. You made my day sir!
