If your team is unaffected by layoffs then you're very very lucky. This sounds like you're imagining basically the spherical cow of layoffs.
Layoffs don't happen when everything is hunky dory and just needs some tweaks.

Sometimes entire departments full of brilliant people go because the department isn't profitable. Again, you have in your mind a spherical cow of a layoff.
