It's freaking everyone. Every niche is Discord now. It's so annoying.

...That being said, this is likely a private chat group. That's ostensibly what its for.

They probably should've used something anonymized with non-persistant chat, but still.

Hard to organize when you can’t look at history.

Not to mention, discord can easily be anonymous, and you can easily kill off viewing history.

True.

Makes me wonder how they got caught? Discord basically not anonymos by default, so maybe no-one anonymized and someone in the channel reported it all to managment?

I wouldn’t doubt they required some sort of “prove you’re in the company” or something, or were shooting the shit publicly in a way that would allow for easy identification.
