Many companies I work with either sell their old workstations for pittance to their employees after we have nuked the drives or donate them to projects that provide laptops to students or refugees who can't afford them.
But many companies lease their hardware nowadays, so those end up to landfill or to companies that refurb them and sell them for profit.
