GOOGLE & AMAZON - Possible new round of layoffs

As much as we have layoffs, most likely google and amazon would do another round sooner than later. Especially with the ER results and reducing costs

Amazon yes, Google may be no

I feel the same way. The retail number is a pain. Google hardware division does look risky too.

Microsoft ODJy56 Feb 4, 2023

Tbh, Google is not over bloated as amazon. Amazon SWEs will be safe, but more about other roles like warehouse workers, etc etc. Google already reduced 6% and with market stabilization, ad spend would again pick up.

They knew these were going to be the earnings results. You can forecast that a few months in advance. That’s why they did the layoff

Not enough đŸ˜„

Apple how about you focus on your own finances.

Things will get worse this year. More layoffs in Amazon and many other industries guaranteed. When the Fed pivots, things will get worse.

Google neonblack Feb 3, 2023

Uh what. Fed pivot is the bottom

Amazon JaneEarp Feb 4, 2023

No Google. Go look at the last several downturns, when the fed pivots is not the bottom. It’s when things get worse. In 2000 and 2008, the “bottom” came several years after the fed pivot.

Do you really think the day they released earnings was the day they found out? They knew it was going to be bad. That’s why they did layoffs. If it gets worse they might do more but if it stays the same or gets better they probably won’t.
