I'm having a hard time figuring out what the connection is supposed to be between having a big profit and laying off employees.

My first thought is that the writer is suggesting that companies should only lay off employees when the employees 1) are financial drains and 2) are such bad financial drains that the company would otherwise go broke. A lot of people do think that way, but it doesn't actually make any sense.
