So I've been a consultant and helped companies do huge layoffs, starting from the top down. The lesson is you are NEVER safe unless you are the owner of the company. I've put many a 20 year veteran who was an SVP of etc etc on the chopping block.
Also another huge risk is if you are a manager of 1 or 2 people. You are not a manager you are a layer. If you are a manager of many "managers" of 1 or 2 people this is doubley true.
While tech experts are often different, if you are an individual contributor with an absurd comp given your actual technical skills, beware.
