100% down. My experience with comms security has been such that we were still shitposting on ‘official’ Spam channels with people who had not been employed at that company for months. One of them even slipped up and accidentally dissed one of his former teammates on the project team channel, and that’s when they ejected him from Slack. About 5 months after he quit.
They did love insta-deleting GSuite accounts without switching doc ownerships or transferring associated accounts, effectively annihilating a lot of vital design stuff. Stuff was super-secure after that, I’ll give’em that much!
Now, that’s the sensible approach, but we don’ take too kindly to “sensible” 'round these here parts!
Jest aside, I see the point in doing this in cases where the company actually deals with very sensitive stuff, but in terms of average app developing company… meh… Most people are smart enough to know not to share keys and creds, and most people who hang around the ol’ Slack channels for a meme and a laugh really don’t care about said keys or creds.
In my case, I did my 6-year stint in full-on Corpo, then dipped from Start-up to Start-up, and it’s always been the same story.

Ha, at the company I work for they are very fast to turn off access, you could tell someone is gone just by looking at their status

At a place I worked many years ago I left because I was moving. I still had remote access to the cameras until they upgraded the system.
