Top-down mandates to use AI as much as possible, and to rip up their infrastructure and move everything to Azure.

This is very worrying if their mandate doesn't include quality control.
Maybe they mandated to use AI for quality control?
Wasn't QC fired a decade ago in most companies?
I figured that it would be something like that. But it's been so frequent that I expect the leadership to act decisively towards a long-term reliability plan. Unfortunately they have near monopoly in this space, so I guess there's not enough incentive to fix the situation.
How frequent? I think the obsession with uptime is annoying. If GitHub is down, if there’s something so critical, then you need some more control of the system. Otherwise take a couple hours and get a coffee or an early lunch.
Frequent enough to interrupt the flow of an entire organization, wasting thousands of hours. Take a look:
