It's good to know your experience mirrors mine. Developers are moving faster, but the rest of the organization is holding them back because processes and decisions still rely on other parts of the org. Has anyone else observed the same?
Organizations "born in AI" appear to buck this trend for obvious reasons (no legacy org. to deal with). My two cents.
I'd say there's bottlenecks within the developer processes without even considering org processes. Code review, release, post release ceremonies. Feels like they absorb much of the gained productivity in the coding phase.
I think while developers are moving faster, they are moving more dangerously. Perhaps the rest of the organization holding them back is a good thing?
