I think they hit pretty hard. I remember some hardcore arguments with buddies that work at google when I told them that based on google's behavior layoffs are going to happen (this was 3-6 months before google did their first layoffs in history). I was brushed off with "google would not do that" and "our culture us different". It was heartbreaking to hear how their view on google transformed after layoffs did happen.
