This is the covid correction.
I heard this argument yesterday on CNBC. Basically, all these companies wanted to horde employees during COVID to not lose them, but as time went on they have just become bloated departments with a lot of excess. My company just went through a 20% cut and I can attest, we had a ton of excess.
Oil and gas and a few other companies started this last year, I think as they saw the wars ending and oil prices about to come down. Now that the dam is broken, these other companies have to follow suit or they will not be competitive carrying excess. They need to cut costs. It absolutely sucks for many who are let go, but let’s not kid ourselves - corporate layoffs are the ugly side of how business grow and stay competitive.

"stagflation airport".
There's been signs of rough waters on the employment front for over a year. For some reason there is latency in the data the Fed uses for decisions over rate increases or decreases. I don't have much faith in them since the whole "it's just transitory" bullshite, followed by a hasty, compressed rate hike schedule that resulted in solvency issues at several banks (like SVB).
