So basically everyone got fired, lost their insurance and any accumulated time off, and now they're being "rehired" as "freelancers" with no insurance and no time off.

It's more like they're being hired by a new company that cut the face off the corpse of the old company and is now wearing it and going "Hello, I am your old friend! Let us renew our perfectly remembered acquaintance."

It's basically what happened with THQ Nordic and Atari. Those companies today have no direct connection to the companies that originally had those names.

Sometimes, that kind of shift can be a positive (THQ Nordic bought up a LOT of old IPs that were pretty much dead, and has put out some good games, and may revive others), but it can also be negative (Atari mostly just churned out shit games and hid behind the recognizable brand name to profit from a name everyone recognized and lots of people had love for, but which wasn't the same thing at all, and was mostly just attached to a shit publisher).
