Never. Until 1-10 person teams starts disrupt enterprises (legacy banks, payments systems, consultancies).

“Why” would you ask? Because it’s a house of cards. If engineers get redundant, then we don’t need teams. If we don’t need teams, then we don’t need team leads/PMs/POs and others, if we don’t need middle management, then we don’t need VPs and others. All of those layers will eventually catch up to what’s going on and kill any productivity gains via bureaucracy.
