WEX, a global fintech company that processes payments for fleet management, employee benefits, and corporate spending, consolidated a fractured developer ecosystem of 300+ Azure DevOps organizations onto GitHub Enterprise and deployed GitHub Copilot across its engineering workforce of 1,700+. The result was approximately 30% higher developer productivity, ~60% ROI on Copilot licenses, and a 99% reduction in deployment cycle times.
General Motors consolidated 19,000+ developers and 150,000 repositories from 40+ fragmented tools onto GitHub Enterprise Cloud, reducing a critical build from 4–6 hours to 27 minutes. By adopting GitHub Advanced Security with Copilot Autofix and deploying GitHub Copilot to 8,000+ developers, GM remediated 100% of leaked secrets and modernized legacy COBOL and Fortran systems.
Cathay, the Hong Kong-based premium travel brand that operates Cathay Pacific airline across 100 destinations with 30,000+ employees, unified its development and security toolchain on GitHub Enterprise, deployed GitHub Copilot to 1,000+ developers, and embedded security scanning into daily workflows through GitHub Advanced Security. The result was a 63% reduction in mean time to remediate security vulnerabilities and a 40% year-over-year improvement in tech debt fixes.
AstraZeneca, one of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies, unified 5,000 developers and scientists onto GitHub Enterprise, automated CI/CD with GitHub Actions, and deployed GitHub Copilot — achieving a 40% increase in developer velocity in its pilot program and generating 9 to 10 additional hours of productive output per developer each week. With drug development timelines measured in decades, the company views even marginal acceleration as directly impacting patient outcomes.
