I firmly believe that monolith vs microservice is much more a company organization problem than a tech problem. Organize your code boundaries similar to your team boundaries, so that individuals and teams can move fast in appropriate isolation from each other, but with understandable, agreeable contracts/boundaries where they need to interact.

Monoliths are simpler to understand, easier to run, and harder to break - up until you have so many people working on them that it becomes difficult for a team to get their work done. At that point, start splitting off "fiefdoms" that let each team move more quickly again.
