Maybe you have heard of Solyndra, who took $500 million dollars from the DOE

Google them for a ton of other articles.

Of note: some people I had known had gone there, and after looking at the SEC filings during the collapse of Solyndra, saw that they were handing out massive bonuses to employees and C-suite staff just prior to literally locking their employees out.

They had their IT lead shut down all accounts/remote access and email, then locked the front doors. Employees showed up to the office the next morning and the doors were locked, this is how they informed them that they were out of a job.
