I know lay-offs seem to be happening a lot, especially in tech right now, and can happen at any point – but just this month there has been Microsoft, Discord, Twitch, Google and RIOT lay-offs to name a few, and I’m sure many others.
Unless it’s just coincidence, why do these lay-off announcements seem to be like a chain reaction? I’m guessing that there must be economical reasons as to why, such as boosting numbers before a certain reporting season? Or is it just to stay competitive in terms of profit margins?
