It goes in either direction... I think with Twitter, as an example, they ballooned and became more than an engineering culture... I think the layoffs were to really scale back to what is/was needed. Not necessarily a reflection on those let go, other than there were way more than needed for what the application is. I do hope they're able to be more agile moving forward, which seems to be the case so far.
For other things, I think some of it is short sightedness and may or may not be good/bad. For many of these layoffs, it's probably office politics as much as anything else.
