Yes, but not in a way that blames the workers. If a product improves but margins don't (because say, interest rates), you have employees who all perfomed above expectations that can still get taken off because the current environment can't make money on anything through consumers (who are getting less buying power and cutting non-essential services).
I'd hope tech workers on a community like this could empathize with other tech workers in such an environment.
