What's crazy is that not one person got reprimanded for this disaster.

Looks like an overworked it department. Can't make things maintainable if you can barely have them not collapse

This is quite tidy for the mess it is.

Executive management cares not for the plight of the pawns. Layoffs will continue until ~~morale improves~~ the buyout cashout.

All those cables, and a stack of near empty 48 port switches just there in the rack lmao

Jokes in you thinking these would be many cables. It's probably one long fibre optic cable used to store bits in-flight.

The icing on the cake for me is the empty “Neat Patch” above the switches

Those big beefy switches had been EoL for several years before they got decommed. The blue spaghetti is the result of migrating off of them. This room was bad before, but after... yeah, this is what happens when companies decide to have a dozen locations but fire all of the DC staff in most of them.

I don't think we even have ethernet cabling in our DCs anymore, it's all fiber now. Only for in house networking, workstations, printers etc.
