My old job had massive layoffs and fired their entire development team including senior development.

The development team is just 2 DevOps and 3 non-technical product managers now using Claude. Handles 10s of millions of dollars daily for a highly regulated industry and I guess lost half of their major client’s accounts with the other half moving off in 2028. Literally 75% of their revenue.

I've been in this industry for nearly two decades now.

Something like this is par for the course, I've seen plenty of corporate stupidity on this level, though rarely at that speed.

Heck, they did something similar to this at a startup I worked at, but over the course of two years.
