Google Teams Debate Blue Shades
If you don't work in tech, it's easy to assume that people at Google are changing the world. Most of them are actually on teams of 290 people who "own" the "Compose" button in Gmail and sit in meetings all day debating which shade of blue they should a/b test this month.

A tweet jokes that people imagine Google employees are changing the world, while many supposedly spend their days in huge meetings debating tiny interface details. The punchline is the exaggerated claim that 290-person teams are assigned to Gmail’s Compose button and even argue over which shade of blue to test. It is used as a sarcastic reaction to corporate tech bureaucracy, overstaffing, and pointless A/B testing.
