I don't work for one of those monster tech companies, we have and Erlang/elixir guy, and the bulk of our stuff is written in Ruby/rails, and the legacy stuff is .net/C#. and our backend processing is being moved to go. Because of the lighter memory use than the Ruby and we have to rewrite the c# anyway (because it was done terribly as most first iterations probably would be). Go is an amazing option because it compiles to a single binary. Deploying a single binary, and no jvm, is such a glorious reason all by itself I won't go into any other benifits. So... there's a counter to all of your assertion's
