Here is a story not about wasting cloud resources, but about wasting careers:
A decade-long project at the ThreeLetterYouknowwho was turning into a separate business, so people were being convinced to abandon their dozen-years old employments at the mentioned ThreeLetterGiant (evil or not, but at least with perspectives and an established routine how to live in this corp), so they did the move, only to be fired 5 months later, as the newly born company was reduced to a half, to fit into parameters required by some stock market related operation.
The crux is that the management knew about all the planned moves when negotiating people's leave from HAL (oops, I mean, ThreeLetterGiant). Yet they needed the massive flux of initial employees to fullfill some other business parameters. Everything was done with a cold blood.
I wasn't reduced this way (I wasn't even at HAL originally, was part of the completely fresh hires) but I left these assholes a month after the layoffs. Even the mob is treating their own people better.

When you manage folks that, by definition, don't like rules and structure, and can probably clip you in a moment, you learn to manage well. Bad managers don't last (literally).
