In my experience, you usually have about 5-10 engineers on a team, reporting to a manager. Manager might report to a director who manages about 5-10 managers. Then VPs managing 5-10 directions, an SVP managing 5-10 VPs, CTO managing 5-10 SVPs, then CEO.

Let's say each project touched about 20-40 people.

What projects were they working on that leadership deemed 1200 employees now useless? Was it... 30 growth projects they shouldn't have been working on? 50? 100? 20? 10? Was there just not enough work going around?
