Any software engineers who work for big companies have any insight on this? Don't these places keep their own source? Or is it just on somebody's laptop that no one's seen since 2015?

people only care when they're told to and are being paid to. If nobody told anyone to care about the archival of source code (and build environments) of old projects, then guess what, it's not likely that anyone is going to do it. Add some good old revolving doors and presto: shit's fucked
