That's the hallmark of a company that's constantly a few days from utter collapse. You let the productive people touch anything they want, because they'll scrape together just enough to keep the systems running, even if it's not 'their job'.
Agreed. Though, as a pedantic argument, I'd say it's evidence of a poorly organized company, but if a company is badly organized "a few days from utter collapse" can typically be the same thing, especially given it's size.
Downsizing is typically the best way to save a poorly organized company because a smaller company can better adapt to structural re-organization than a larger one can.
If you can bulldoze the structural failures out of the way of the productive people, you'll get a chance to recover.
Oh, you don't just have unlimited access to everything all the time in the production environment?
