I had a similar experience last year as an advisor to a large "enterprise" type company. They are a slow-moving company with no competitive pressure & tons of compliance constraints, had several teams of Java engineers, they all know Java really well, they do not know JavaScript well. They had been attempting to migrate all their services to a modern, cool, bells & whistles JS SPA architecture.
Get ready for the surprise twist: It wasn't going well. I was hired as an expert JS consultant to advise them on which JS framework to use.
My advice? Get ready for surprise #2: "don't use javascript [or use it sparingly as needed]."
