Sounds just like "enterprise" IT to me, tbh.

Leadership can reform enterprise IT, sometimes including staffing cuts while also improving productivity. I have personally seen this happen. It can actually get better.

This is why some people are optimistic about recent efforts at doing the same in government bureaucracy. It's possible to trend upwards.
