I couldn't disagree more.

As companies grow/change, existing structures that used to work at some point, can start to break down and a reorg can (and often does) solve that.

A typical example are smaller companies that start with centralized services that support all BUs, but that break up these services as they grow, because per-BU needs might diverge too much or because the distance/sense of ownership of a central group doesn't always align.

It doesn't always work, but I've seen it done right multiple times.
