    In the past, when a company had disastrous revenue and all, they did layoff ; and when they were super successful and earn top $$$ they hired a lot of people to grow.

    For a couple of years now, when a company post incredible revenue/profit grow like literally two digits billions per quarter, they layoff people.

    So yeah it’s a sign of a healthy company now ‽
