What’s the end game for these scammers once they get the job? I understand there’s a question of espionage if they’re collecting intel from these companies, but do they also do their jobs? Or do they disappear as soon as they’re hired and collect as much data and money until they get fired? Do they actually know how to do IT work?

For many scammers (not North Korean specifically) it’s just one big game of collecting as many paychecks from as many companies as you can until they fire you.
For some multi-job people, the game is to continuously apply to companies and then let any company that is paying attention fire them after 1-3 months. Repeat long enough and you might find your way into a couple companies where your demands are so low that you can do all the jobs in a couple hours per day because your managers are so checked out that they don’t care. Ride this until the company lays off the whole underperforming team, then find the next jobs.
