In case the OP doesn’t reply my interpretation is there is way more demand than supply so sure you’re “at will” but you could find another job quickly. As for fortune-500 and IT layoffs I imagine we are talking here about technology companies for which “IT” isn’t a line item to be cut but _is_ the business. Rules may be different at BestBuy or Bank of America but I bet not by much.

This. I haven’t been out of work as a developer in 28 years. And I’m definitely not in the top 5% of developers skill or intelligence-wise.
