I can only imagine. A company doesn't develop the need to cease operations overnight. There's usually a core of faulty decision-makers who have become ingrained over time, leading the way toward financial unsustainability. Their jobs can be basically untouchable while the company is seemingly operating without undue threat. Once too much failure is undeniable, these people keep themselves on board to continue administering the company as well as possible before the money runs out. Still untouchable but when you do the math the company will last a lot longer before total closure, being administered the way they do but without all that expensive operations stuff. And maybe make a comeback if they can get some support but it may take confidence in their team's ability to succeed with perhaps a proven-to-fail mindset. Some people can build that kind of confidence sometimes, you never know. The same thing that leads toward doom could also be what keeps things alive as a zombie.
