I shouldn’t of said cut, but they did layoff 250 members 2 years ago and among those were the Servo team.

That's not the core dev team, at all. Servo was a research group, building an experimental browser engine, parts of which did end up transitioning across to Gecko.
Some senior core developers were definitively let go, though, e.g. David Baron (who is now working for Google on Chrome instead).
