Of course, no job can ever be 100% safe, but those who keep saying that we should always have this in mind, I think they are exaggerating a bit or are more anxious by nature. I still think that some jobs here are much safer than others. What do you think are the most/least safe jobs here?

TOS management is super safe. These dim leaders don't have a clue what they are doing and have fooled upper management that constant re-orgs and moving people will solve their issues. So many layers of incompetence in TOS management.
Some Commercial Portfolio Manager Team Leaders have already been let go. A few that came over from Community and a few that were long time established commercial Team Leaders.
More layoffs coming 08/24.
The best safety is being the only person that knows a process. There's no such thing as a job that wholly is "safe." Any level of management, especially higher up the chain, will be most susceptible to allegiance. All it takes is one person leaving at the top for a total changing of the guard.
Then most worker bee types are a dime a dozen. It's just not that hard to find someone to do office work. Sorry!

Credit functions seem relatively safe in my opinion..although I may be biased as a portfolio manager. But, we are busy, and the way business is going I feel like we're going to see some credit quality changes which will keep us even busier. If they were going to make cuts in my world I feel like the team leads would be most at risk with their higher salaries and their lack of tangible work production.
Least safe: processing
That is a middle man. Can do without
