Every so often they write an article talking about how great their several-years-long effort to switch to React Native is going, and every time I read it and come away with an even more negative opinion of React Native.

I've learned not to trust company technical blogs. They're all just marketing fluff intended to act as recruiting materials, and judging by the comments here, it's working. As your post highlights, taken in the greater context, it sounds like their decision to move to React Native was so slow going and the end-user experience is just okay.
I suppose taken from the perspective of "We want to easily hire frontend devs that can easily be slotted in to work on the project and make impact on all platforms, including mobile" then it's a win, but at a cost in years and a degraded user experience. From a business perspective, probably a good move in the long run.
