I have a friend who has gone through 3 layoffs in last 5 years. - 2018 Layoff from Microsoft (L64) => Amazon as SDE 3. - 2019 PIPed from Amazon => Staff at Uber - 2020 Uber Layoff => Back to Microsoft (L66) He spent a decade at Microsoft before being laid-off. He is a lifer kind of person who don't want to leave any job. He is now worried that he will face a layoff for the 4th time. In the last 3 times, he was always able to get a salary hike. He also got the jobs within a month. But this time is different. May be he will come to Meta as E7 (we started hiring E7+).
3 severances and 4th incoming. He should retire.
Not sure a pip gives severance. Isn't that getting fired?
Yes there is severance just less than when laid off.
So you assume he will be layed off but they have not been yet? Also piped isn't really layoff, isn't that fired? Not to sure what the goal of this post is though
You can be unlucky 4 times.
Check the law of attraction. Think positivel

L66 is barely IC5
This makes me wonder, job interviews seem to evaluate vastly different competencies as compared to what's required in the actual job. Or, they might be evaluating the same competencies but on a very superficial level. How can someone who is so good at acing FAANG level interviews consistently, also reflect the same level of talent/hardwork/whatever that's needed to be atleast surviving in such companies, rather than thriving?
A lot of that credit goes to scammy paid interview practice schools. They teach you how to Crack interviews, but these people also lean heavily on the team and don't contribute much from what I have seen and discussed. I try to filter these candidates during presceen but it's getting difficult. Check this thread and my posts here [Blind] Check out this post!

"lean heavily on the team" - could you elaborate this? What is the expected behaviour?
