Layoffs everywhere?

With big corporate giants like Google, Apple, Bain, Tesla, Amazon etc. laying off staff in the name of cost reduction, automation&innovation and restructuring while at the same time tech companies like Accenture not awarding any yearly hikes to professionals for 2 consecutive years now, where do you see the IT/Tech/Consulting industry heading towards in next couple years down the line? By when is the market expected to revive? Which companies are still committed to ensuring job security along with high pay standards or is that a thing of the past? Please enlighten me😊

If layoffs are happening ina decent scale, the first place to show up is rentals. Renta are showing no sign of reducing. Infact it's going up. People are willing to pay it.

Businesses are always more risky and failure rate than job. Especially first gen business. People just look at few successful businesses but fail to see 99% others that failed which aren’t there in the news.

It makes sense for company to layoff overpaid employees & hire similar skilled employee at lower salary.. Isn't it?
