Yeah my company had a small RIF recently but it feels so much better for everyone when the severance is generous and the treatment is humane. Laying off people sucks, but knowing they'll have several months of continued income and health insurance makes it suck less. A small startup I worked at shut down and they told us on ~Nov 15th that our pay and benefits would all be ending Dec 1st -- what an absolute nightmare for anyone with bills or a family.
