A relevant anecdote: One of my own contacts at Microsoft has been moved (to a completely different department) at least 3 times in the last year. His job has been sort of the same but one day he's part of one "silo" and then is moved to a completely different one. Of course with the added "huge company weirdness" of having either too many bosses, but also for about 6 months, had no boss at all... I can imagine that this could breed incredible apathy in an organization.
