Seems fake
You can find it with a google search. Sounds legit to me. But yes the source is not as trustable as WSJ.
Number doesn't make sense if only the sales team is impacted. Maybe 300 would be more reasonable?
Yeah I’ll wait till a trusted news outlet breaks the story. But 30k makes 0 sense
I think they will cut more from data science, software and product manager.
Guess I’m going to have a lot more googlers to refer to TikTok. DM for a referral, that goes for anyone reading
Are you hiring outside US?
Yes. DM. Hundreds of open roles outside the US
A terrible company does terrible things. Considering how bloodthirsty Google has been with layoffs this year, this shouldn’t come as a surprise due to how poorly the layoffs were handled. In the end, it’s just another company to avoid.
Can you expand on layoffs being handled poorly?
No
Don't trust Indian news, they just do copy-paste
Just like Indian devs
If you read the article all it says is that 30k jobs are in the ads sales team and they are at risk due to restructuring and AI. Incredibly misleading article
So Ad sales layoff =/= layoff?
Restructuring =/= layoff. Google restructures teams weekly, if that always triggered layoffs we’d have no employees left. This could lead to redundancies and layoffs, but it also could not. Whatever happens, it’s not going to be 30k from one division lol
click bait. here's the article - https://www.theinformation.com/articles/google-plans-ad-sales-restructuring-as-automation-booms key excerpts: ~~~ Google plans to reorganize a big part of its 30,000-person ad sales unit, an executive told some staff last week, prompting anxiety that some departments will face job cuts. At a departmentwide meeting last week, Sean Downey, who oversees ad sales to big customers in the Americas, said Google plans to restructure its ad sales teams, according toa person who heard the remarks. Downey didn't specify when it would happen or whether the move would include layoffs. Some employees expect the changes to be announced next month. ~~~~ Nothing to see here folks - keep moving.
Generally when they avoid telling you about the layoffs, it is going to happen
Yes, layoffs will happen, but The Hindustan Times, etc. simply took the original article and paraphrased it inaccurately to garner clicks.
It really depresses me how poor reading comprehension is on this app.
It's not code review lol
Reading takes away from LC time
30k is too radical. I hope it's false
It was typical clickbait journalism. The reality is that teams for 30k people in sales are being restructured
