Fairly sure they “saved” hundreds of thousands in wages only to lose millions to billions in material. An engineer working 80 hour weeks month after month isn’t nearly going to be as productive as one doing 40hr weeks, no matter how many hours they put out. There’s actually a point where it turns negative and every extra hour put in detracts from output, not to mention long-time wellbeing and development.
I’ve heard the same. I’m sure it certainly doesn’t help, but I think also what they’re trying to do is really difficult
