I'm reading ShapeUp and what's described there sounds awesome. 6 weeks work + 2 weeks cooldown. Well prepared (shaped) ideas, design work highly integrated (instead of handed over to devs to implement). Small teams of 2 devs + 1 designer. Feels like very energetic place to work.

Sounds too good to be true. Are you working in a company that adopted it and could share your experience?

I've only seen attempts on adopting SO Teams on a small scale (like a rogue team trying to fix knowledge management problem), and it was always a fail (too little volume, no one was searching there anyway). So I'm interested:

Are there companies/teams that adopted it successfully? Can you share what was the scale? Was it top-down, or bottom-up initiative? What worked?
