The original savings stay on the leadership slide deck. The reversal costs are distributed across departments and quarters where no single executive is accountable for the total.
This is not an accounting problem. It is a policies, procedures, and processes problem.
When organizations do not have the internal infrastructure to evaluate LLM adoption decisions before they are made, they also do not have the infrastructure to track the full cost when those decisions fail.

The savings are visible and celebrated. The damage is diffuse and absorbed quietly. Nearly 30% of HR leaders in the Careerminds study reported permanent loss of critical institutional knowledge after LLM-driven cuts. That cost does not appear on any balance sheet. It shows up later, in customer complaints, in quality failures, in the next generation of workers who cannot learn from people who are no longer there.
