Have they traditionally allowed restricted stock to mature, or do they get lost in a layoff situation?

It’s sort of like what Amazon does. Amazon pays less but offers stock that vests. Supposedly the churn at Amazon means people leave before the bulk of their stock vests.
One should definitely not count on stock as part of compensation. It’s nice if you get it but I think more and more people won’t realize most of it.
Interesting that when executives leave the Company, their RSUs are pushed up to mature so that they are paid out. Should be no different as they are offered as part of the compensation package. Good way to fulfill the stock buy back.
If you are laid off this week or next, your RSUs that vest on 3/13/18 will be fine and will move into your account as scheduled. You can sell them from there, if you like, or hold them. The WARN period of 60 days will cover it. You will lose the rest of the RSUs, though. That's the way the plan is set up.
Your post-tax MIP, or management incentive, as determined by the final calculation and then combined with the multiplication factor from your evaluation, will be in the 3/8/18 paycheck.
