I don't know what happens to ownership and permissions when you do that, but this error:
Code:
wpe_permissionmgr_determine_update_type: processing arg /wp-content
in wpe_permissionmgr_determine_update_type, invalid st_mode(193974528) returned on /wp-content
wpe_permissionmgr_determine_update_type: processing arg /vagrant/wp-content
chmod of file /vagrant/wp-content to 775 failed
suggests that a directory named vagrant/wp-content was created and that something went wrong. You can check the file's sizes, ownership and permissions in sftp using ls -l.

exactly correct. i just don't see where/how/who tried to create that. the support team where this server is hosted seems to think the wp-content folder was accidentally moved into /vagrant. which is a solid theory, i mean drag/drop errors happen all the time and if someone is using an FTP client, then it's very likely that's what happened. i just don't see where that was actually requested.
Given that the content is owned by the (presumably) the web server user, is it possible that the move happened via a web-run script (i.e. CGI) rather than via SFTP?
Just thinkin' out loud...
i am definitely not ruling anything out for sure. the site is hosted on wp engine so i do not have full visibility into how the server is built and what all is going on.
