Pursey Heugens of RSM has been mentioned in an article that discusses the fact that increasingly larger companies are emerging and some have more than one million employees. Can giants such as Amazon or Alphabet (Google) also be too big? "It's all about ABC: division of labor, decision-making, coordination." Pursey states that he believes that the size of the workforce is not the problem. For example, he says about Walmart: "You can accuse the company of all kinds of things, but not that the company is not properly managed. The big problem is the diversity in the number of activities."
