I work at a major tech company and most times I go to IT, they tell us to restart our computer. Why is this a necessary process to maintain a normal operating experience?

Your computer’s memory is full of programs. They’re starting and stopping all the time as you open and close whatever apps and tools you use. Sometimes one of them stops working correctly and causes a problem.
Restarting the computer guarantees that the memory gets a fresh start.
It’s a lazy debugging step on support’s part (it would be better to find a problem and fix it), but it also works a lot of the time and it’s quick.
