Meta has 70k and google has 170k. Can google layoff 100k employees and actually perform better?
Absolutely. Googlers of today aren’t the same as 10 years ago when it was prestigious
Meta is not even near the scope of Google’s market. Imo Google is hugely undervalued. It’s the only company that has been consistently generating true innovation (although they fail to leverage it in their products)
Lol yeah we suck at integration and final execution.
When the first round of layoffs happened, my ex-Google friend said “they can only do that 6-7 more times before they’re in trouble”.
Google can work very efficently with just 1 employee
I thought only Bard is running Google and the rest are just feeding Bard with new data models
Problem is our customer facing products on cloud. On that side they'll complain we're not serious about enterprise compared to AWS and Azure so it'll always require a ton of manpower to compete there. Maybe not 170k but even pre-Covid 100k it felt understaffed.
Wait, even after all these layoffs G has 170k employees?? wtf
Of course not..they have way more products and are working on way more things
