The last place I worked at decided to cut the ops staff entirely and put all devs on support duty. Hilarity ensued because no one wanted to do it and the suits were baffled. They established a hard cutoff date for the transition, and at the last minute had to keep some ops on for a few months. Before that cutoff expired, they laid off almost our entire division, leaving only a fraction of untrained and unwilling staff to keep the lights on. Even more humor, security hadn't been consulted on this and some requirements when they went to implement it. Any dev, during their 2-week support and on-call period, would have their access to the dev systems removed. Anyone not in their 2-week window would have no access to prod.
