I worked in Dell EMC when it got aquired. Most of the work was duplicated between Dell and EMC so every EMC project was stalled for further decision. In India Bangalore office situation was such that to keep jobs all used to file for patents write patents all day and they even used have patent lawyers visit office and pitch patent ideas. Patent ideas were approved and filed were sometimes using better algorithms in previous patents, like literally adding null checks.
