@D- it can also be economics. Layoffs can happen to anyone for all sorts of reasons. I would advise everyone at all firms to be confident but always prepared for things to change in a heartbeat.

@OP- you referring to any specific cases at Deloitte?

4s and 5s always are let go. There are no "layoffs" until you're a 3 who met all their metrics and is let go

I thought that kind of lay off was completed during green light.... I'm surprised that they waited till bonus month and then laying off!

Hi,
As of now I got into PIP so does it indirectly means that i will be fired.?

Have a big interview tomorrow. The question I dread the most is about why you’re looking for a new job. The honest answer is that there isn’t enough work to go around at my agency and I want to get ahead of the inevitable layoffs. What’s the best way to tell them this? Do I just make something else up entirely?

A quick note about what I’ve experienced, in my decade long career, is the real advantage of MBB or FAANG - it gives you a shot at stretch roles that are outside your expertise. Not all the time or even most of the time compared to better candidates with specific experience for the role but gives you this wildcard shot at a vast array of opportunities.
