Several of my former classmates from secondary school, JC and NUS who are all accomplished professionals/managers approaching their mid-50s, were laid off in recent years under the guise of restructuring. Is this a pattern of companies targeting older employees? Would SG Talkers like to share your experiences?

the root cause is the 60% voters.

this kind of issues already happened since 15 years ago.
NTUC unions and opposition MPs have been talking about ageism/unemployment support in parliament since 15 years ago
but PAP refused to do anything.

after 15 years, 60% continue to vote for PAP.
this coming election,60% will still continue to vote for PAP.

as long as 60% continue to vote PAP, there is no need for PAP to do anything.
if your father gives $1 millions to you, there is no need for you to borrow or work.
