We're seeing companies cut costs. Just this week we've had:
Amazon Begin Cutting 18,000 Workers
Microsoft Layoff 10,000 Workers
WeWork Cut 300 Jobs
Google Cut 12,000 Jobs

In many cases, the answer is as simple as these firms have over-hired from Covid and are just returning to normal. But something makes me feel like these companies are preparing in the case of worsened economic times ahead.
