It has me oddly hopeful. It sounds like they may have finally realized that they can't ignore their core product/purpose. However, whether it's too late or if they have the ability to actually execute is still to be seen.
Frankly, no idea. They talked the talk, but it's vague enough that I wouldn't be surprised if they cut out some important people and kept a lot of the bogus crap.
Speaking from a company that has seen (less dramatic) rhetoric around similar circumstances, and everyone on the ground who understood nuance would have guessed certain projects to get canned. Then it turns out they treated the money losing projects as the sacred cows and cut the profitable projects to the bone and put them at risk rather than give up the losers.
