I experienced that once. The parent and the parent's parent company were from the USA. The top CEO and CTO came over and fired everyone. My laptop was controlling a job that had to run pretty long on a 16 core server, but I did as asked: I shut down the laptop and left it on my desk. That was at least $50k down the drain.

The reason they fired the whole dept. was that they were going to centralize development, as they had 200 other developers. After 5 years, they still hadn't developed a new product. Then they bought a competitor and rebranded it. The old product had to be kept running for years after. I guess they finally switched all their clients, because the web sites now open with <!--eslint-disable @angular-eslint/template/prefer-self-closing-tags-->. Who puts that in their HTML?
