You're right, a lot of it probably went to the devs but from what I'm reading the cash burn is so bad because it's extremely chaotic in there, lot's of bad decisions, canceled projects, lot's of directors swapping places. No idea what part of it went to low ranking devs and what went to consultants and building useless prototypes.
