I don’t know what his former company does, but it’s easy to imagine scenarios on both ends of the spectrum. From processing Bejeweled microtransaction payments to ER intake or ambulance dispatch. Doesn’t really matter in the end. Software is everywhere and we all use it. Unless the company is so bad that damaging it is a political act of defiance against evil (I’m looking at you, Nestle, Blackwater, etc), then there’s really no good argument for employees burning shit on their way out.
Corporations are like billionaires you don’t become one without willfully destroying the planet, stealing wages from the labor, and sometimes straight up murder. If you look hard enough they are cancer.

It could have shut down the company. I imagine there clients are looking to move to a competitor as they may be more trustworthy.
It appears to be a company that makes software for power plants. I wonder how secure their software is.
