85. “Most projects are about six or seven total. We believe in small teams
because we believe they are more efficient, and speed is something that's incredibly
important to us. It's also important to note that decisions are made by those
teams...There's always a designer...There's almost always also a
researcher...We also have engineers - usually between one and four... And
then product managers”
