I think one can control the degree to which software architecture reflects the org chart. To take an extreme example, Chrome is primarily a single, giant (~200 MB) binary. I'm sure the layout of the source repositories reflects the Chrome org chart. But thankfully, they always had the engineering discipline to produce the architecture that was best for performance (a monolith, albeit a multi-process one) without letting it get out of control.
