Yeah I completely get why it happened it's just sad that it did.

Because of how markets work in the US their management come under immense pressure to find other sources of "growth" now that the main streaming business has capped out.

TLDR engineering hiring got a lot less selective in pursuit of accelerating "new growth areas". Once that happens your A class engineers leave and you can't ever rehire at that same level again without majorly taking out the trash.
