EMs are never in the loop for layoffs for companies of this size, because the whole company would just get forewarning of the layoffs

Thats usually correct for these “surprise” layoffs. For the ones that are announced in advance there is a bit more coordination (like the meta/amazn ones).
At Amazon managers absolutely are not in the loop for layoffs. I would very much doubt they are at meta.
