This is absolutely the typical result, and it may well be the result here. However, I wonder if it is going to change now that more people are working remotely. If you never saw those people in the office anyway, will it bother the typical person as much that they don't see them at work anymore? It may be that "survivor guilt" is less a rational response (if they're laying people off, maybe I should look for somewhere else before they get to me), and more an emotional response to the empty desk next to yours. If you're not even at the desk, you're at home, and it all looks the same as it did before the layoff, maybe the emotional response is not the same. Or, maybe not. Just a thought. I guess we will find out soon.
