It's bizarre and the article is vague about it, but if I had to speculate:
Tech-first companies always have more software work that can be done; if not, they come up with new work to expand the business (features, scaling, etc)
But maybe this could happen at companies where software just supports the primary business? If the software isn't the product, and it's currently doing everything it needs to do for the business, I could imagine a scenario where IT people might become idle
- ChrisMarshallNY 4y agoI've never encountered anything like that, myself, but I have been in sort of a "silo," for most of my career. The author may be in a contract outsourcing shop.
