My response as someone affected by layoffs, but not because I was laid off.
1. No
2. N/A
3. N/A
But my workload increased drastically after this years cuts. My team has to shoulder additional responsibilities that are neither interesting or fun. I am in Switzerland and in hindsight I would've loved to be offered voluntary redundancy and take home the severance package.
In the same position over the last year our engineering org has been cut to a 1/3rd of what it was. Spent nearly the entire year just cleaning up messes left from teams that were laid off promptly. Wishing each time I was in the layoff round.
I just tell my manager I can only do the work of 1 person. I'm not shouldering more work than I can handle and getting burned out anymore. I'm not here to cover up for a staffing problem. Those problems should bubble up, not down.
