2020 Layoff Risk

Are mass layoffs on the horizon at banks following this pandemic-fueled market uncertainty? I would normally think no, but there is no end in sight to this bludgeoning. No one seems to know what is going on. Starting to get nervous & am hearing some chatter around the floor. Which groups/titles will be hit first at BBs?
