Companies used to require IE a lot back in the late 90s and early 00s, if that counts.

Definitely. My company has several vendors that require us to use IE and Silverlight to access their products. It's been a pain for us in IT to figure out how to support those vendor's products while still maintaining security.

I had to install it for a customer yesterday. I actually thought it had been retired...

I mean actually paying or giving discounts to users to install such a notorious piece of software, like Flash.
