I’m not sure it is unexpected. Jobs dwindle when there’s uncertainty.

And we have a lot of economic, political, and geopolitical uncertainty.

So, if anything, I would be surprised if we don’t see this level of job reduction consistently for at least the rest of the year.

What is less clear to me is whether it will accelerate or whether it will continue for a few years.
