Some ding-dong consultant told management that tech companies don't need IT departments. I'm sure that will go great for them.

Got there! Thank you so much to all the comrades who have assisted!

Sounds like this person went to the Alan Johnson School of Consultancy. https://youtu.be/Xgveuzf-ZZw?si=8a1LwAWq5BqVDEu3

Yeah, that seems to be right. They just acquired another company, decided to just car crash the two names together to make absolute gibberish, and are firing basically every department that actually does anything. Apparently they let the both of the entire customer service departments go too, and there's an all hands meeting scheduled Friday for engineering? Literally nobody who does anything is going to be left at the end of the month, that's literally every department except for middle management because sales got dumped over the summer.
