To be honest, I don't think there is a 'normal' amount of layoffs. It depends how well run the companies you work for are, and how unlucky you/they are when it comes to societal trends as a whole. For example, I experienced layoffs from my last two roles, simply because the companies in question got affected by Covid. One had a lot of clients in the events industry, so had to layoff 90% of their staff when the lockdowns occurred, and the other bet the farm on the pandemic era rise in users lasting past the world reopening (which it didn't). So I don't think someone getting laid off 3 times in two years is that out of the ordinary. Feels like you just got really unlucky with the companies that hired you, which is gonna to happen to at least a percentage of the population. If it turned out they got fired for poor behaviour/incompetence at every company they worked in that would be a red flag, but just working for incompetent/failing companies isn't really a red flag in itself.
