This is insane. Why they couldn’t do it all at once?! https://www.theverge.com/2024/1/17/24041841/youtube-business-layoffs-google #google #layoff #youtube
Wow just do it once and save your employees- it’s a lot of mental trauma
It is! I feel so sad about it. Praying people land back on their feet soon
Unions and lawmakers should fight to have “no multiple layoffs in a month”. It’s a torture. Just one mass layoff in 6 months. Not more than that. It just shows how incompetent the leadership is. This guy needs to step down.
It's high time people stop using Google products. But then is it possible?
Looks like a few more PAs to go through such as verily waymo and the ones that haven't been announced yet since the first drop of news last week
Waymo already had 3 rounds.
We are introducing the concept of "Continuous Layoffs". By the time we finish this round of layoffs it will be already time to start the next one.
CH/CL pipeline - Continuous hire, continuous layoff
Basically just pretend to work until access is cutoff aka coast/rest and vest
If they lay off at once, the same people will cry. How could they judge at once? There must be a sql search results that did it to us or AI. With over 170K employees , not everyone is a genius or super productive. It needs time. In terms of moral, accept layoff is the trend in all the companies. None complaints when hiring criteria is loose and hundreds get hired in a week.
Yep agreed unfortunately. Last year Jan 2023, when G did 12k instantly at once, everyone cried and said it's heartless. Now the SLT heard your voices, so now they are doing the continuous mini-layoffs instead and everyone still cried and said it's heartless too🤷
I don’t know … people who are hanging are suffering. Especially those with family and visa.
In a note to employees on Wednesday, Sundar Pichai, Google’s chief executive, said they should expect to see cuts for the rest of the year, but not as big as what the company experienced last year.✂️🔪🥺
Google is such a shit company. Long gone are the glory days. I remember 10 years ago I would foam at the mouth for Google, now it’s not even top 5 on my list.
Different business units. If they really stick to their word and lay off 30k people…we’ll be here for a while. Hopefully not. Don’t wish unemployment on anyone
They never said they’ll lay off 30k
There were news articles doing rounds over here on blind about 30k cuts
