It is said that the difficulty of OKR adoption increases as the age at which the organization adopts it for the first time moves up. Considering how the current leading practitioners of OKRs started when they were fairly small, lends credence to this idea. By the same logic, it is easy to assume that 2020's second-largest software company by revenue and market capitalization would face some hurdles in shifting to OKRs.
Unravelling the information
Managing restricted OKR visibility was the main hurdle for the partner organization, which wanted more control & flexibility as opposed to the traditional way of keeping OKRs publicly visible. Due to the nature of some goals, the organization chose to have them restricted to a specific set of users or teams while the overall public goals remained accessible to everyone.
