Who has the scoop on Sidley Chicago/NYC layoffs / no offers for summers?

Is it just me or do 90% of the jobs being laid off by big tech sound made up? Many job descriptions with multiple bullet points that all kinda revolve around the same idea.

Are these kind of jobs finally being exposed? Six figure employees getting paid to sit and bounce ideas off each other?
