I experienced this at a network ad agency office I worked for in 2010. Financial crisis of 2008, massive cuts, layoffs, etc. Everybody who was a go getter with qualifications took off, leaving the bottom barrel people at their posts. Since the agency had some guaranteed work from network wide contracts, it never closed up shop, but by the time I was hired on, it was the blind leading the blind.
