If ExampleCo laid off 1000 javascript developers last week and is trying to hire 20 ML developers this week, then it's true to say they're hiring again, but it's also true that it can be hard for a dev to find a job.

just curious - is there a real world scenario where a company has 1k "javascript" developers and can also lay them off without crippling their position in a given market?

follow up - what market and which company(FAANG counts but must be a single org)?
