You tell me which is smarter: Layoff 10 $80K/year engineers who produce technical innovation or Layoff one 800K/year senior VP who produces powerpoint slides and failed management schemes.
Pssshaaaw ! Yeah, but I'll betcha not one of those engineers has pistol grip ears and a removable denture like the VP does. I'd even betcha not one of those engineers even has a single pair of square toed shoes or talks with an effeminate lisp like the executive, either. < /sarcasm >

A buddy of mine works for a large tech company, they sent all of their IT support and software people to India via IBM. They have 50 people left in the company in that IT division. 8 of them are VPs.
Remember the golden rule of corporate management: "a prince never shoots another prince".
