How it manages its promotions, even moreso than org.

To add some color to this, the culture for a very long time would reward folks that came up with novel solutions to problems or novel products. These folks would dedicate some effort into the implementation, land the thing, then secure a promo with no regard for the sustainability of the aforementioned solution. Once landed, attention goes elsewhere and the thing is left to languish.

This behavior has been observed publicly in the Kubernetes space where Google has contributed substantially.
