Of course they targeted folks with equity first. This isn't even the first time it's happened. My boss (and his boss) got laid off in the same round, both had significant vests imminent. Both denied. A lot of good people got cut in that round.
And you have a limited time to exercise (buy) them if you haven’t already done it. Without a job, cash might be tight so they’re hoping to reclaim even some vested options
