Yea, basically what the other user said. React Native being used by numerous teams that will be consolidated. The best devs per dollar will stay. That should be happening by late 2025, again nothing has ever been more up in the air at Ally.

The rest of the week might be safe, but not sure if the first half of this year will be safe.
