My previous company was overly cost sensitive, but large enough to not notice the waste. IT and procurement managed relationships with the vendor (Lenovo IIRC), and we had the workstations for 3 years officially but most people were 5-6 years. The hardware 100% just went back into storage when we cycled and would be given out to new hires when they joined. We were using Threadrippers with 128GB RAM and NVMe SSDs anyway...
