What is the deal with layoffs?

Okay so we just heard news about the layoffs at GS. I was wondering if there have been whispers of other banks, particularly at EBs, of upcoming layoffs. Do you really think banks are going to layoff underperforming analysts? If so, are analysts immune if they accepted offers at reputable buyside shops. Very curious
