Speaking from my experience: Ansys is an old giant with employees that have been around since the beginning with no desire to leave. What do these employees do? Not much. These 'experts' have enjoyed a really comfortable job for decades, while blocking the careers of younger talent. A decent paycheck with health insurance keeps a lot of these boomers secure. They are not current with new tech and tools, but still hold power in decisions. If there is anything positive that can come from these layoffs would be a purge of these folk.

@OP Ansys does have many people who have been there a long time. The company has done extremely well over the years and treats their employees well. Why would you leave that? The company has dine well BECAUSE of those people. And they have been hiring like crazy in recent years so plenty of opportunities got "younger talent". Sounds like you're projecting.
Lol projecting much?
@ah not when there are too many of them.
@OP "They are not current with new tech and tools, but still hold power in decisions." Decision makers won't get laid off. Their jobs are very stable.
