There is a pecking order for compensation from bankrupt and defunct firms. The last on the list who gets to see anything are employees and common stockholders. Any assets a company has remaining go to big creditors.
I don't think the looting was really for financial gain as much as it was a symbolic gesture. Kinda "take that." Although, in the end, the ones really "taking it" are the employees.
The PriceWaterhouse employees should have seen it coming. But I feel so bad for them. Here's a firm of tens of thousands screwed by one office with a few unethical morons. And everyone loses their jobs cause of it.
