That's four screens total. You're first on the chopping block.

Fact is, in my company, higher ups have more screens than me. Like phone, desktop, couple monitors and huge wall monitor.

Maybe your company is a statistical outlier

Nah, actually, in a typical company the lower down the ranks you are the less likely you are to be fired, statistically speaking (to a point, of course you're more likely to be fired while on probation or something).

This is true. CEOs generally last very short before they're fired. Any normal person would be set for life by their compensation package, though.
