EY 4, I'm in the SE Region. Some of the people that got let go were a complete shock. Highly rated, well liked. Others were obvious low hanging fruit, but my staff was/is excellent.

like

They increased hiring significantly at the staff level the past few years but didn't increase revenues at the same rate. In order to get a higher number of staff, they took from a lower rung of candidates than they normally would. Two years later your left with folks that need to be cut, so they get rid of the low performers that they probably wouldn't have hired in the first place under normal circumstances.

^do you not understand how layoffs work? The firm doesn't have the capacity or revenues to support all the staff hired. You're suggesting that the owners of the business take a pay cut in order to keep around excess employees they don't need, so that employees can be utilized at less than 100%. Did you fail your business courses in college?

The Current scenario of high attrition rates and job shift by taking multiple offers has been caused by a resource crunch in the market. However I have a feeling that this particular scenario of shifting jobs by way of multiple offers and getting high salary is creating a bubble in the market which will burst causing a ripple effect of lay offs due to cost saving efforts by organisations in the near future. In a scenario like this how can one change the job by avoiding the bubble?
