The last firm I was at laid me off, along with everyone else, because they went out of business. I almost forgot that was an actual layoff, because I stayed in their suite working for a few of the other attorneys who stayed put, so to speak, and started up their own, much smaller firm on the same premises.
Another firm I was with laid off all the high-paid employees (incl. me), and replaced us with unskilled workers.
