Google parent Alphabet Inc. said it plans to eliminate roughly 12,000 jobs, reducing its staff by 6% and marking the company’s largest-ever round of layoffs as it copes with a darkened economic outlook.
The reductions will cut across Alphabet units and geographies, the company said, though some areas, including recruiting and projects outside of the company’s core businesses, would be more heavily affected.
No worries, Pichai will replenish these laid-off loudmouthed americans with hardworking quiet indian countrymen
The CEO is a joke!!!! sundarpichai .. firing talented tech workers all because he wants to continue with his fraudulent share buybacks. CEO spent around $150 BILLION on sharebuybacks over last 4 years just to hide shareholder dilution. No shame!
12,000 People Must Congratulate Themselves, Helping Global Warming .It's Hard To Make A Footprint If You Don't Have to Drive, Eat, And use all That Electricity at Work.
I dont like it when people lose their jobs.
How many were former miners? Sad - Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden spoke to a crowd in Derry, N.H., a town that many miners call home.He acknowledged the economic setbacks and job insecurity that coal miners face these days, and gave them some advice: learn to code.
Yet Biden touts his employment numbers.
More peer pressure than a teenager at a house party
When Twitter announced layoffs people lost their minds. Barely a peep when almost every other big tech company did the same.
Wow, costs go up 6-8% due to inflation, then you cut about the same in your workforce... I see no parallel here.
That could include the entire alphabet. In names.
The first to go should be Sundar, the company has been totally without direction with him at the helm. Every decision has been short sighted and tactical. He is operation way beyond his ability for many years.
They should start by sacking Sundar, then most of the SVPs. Utterly hopeless leadership.
if they loose search dominance then it is just another company
Let’s see if this gets the outrage Elon got for the same exact thing…. Good business practice
You guys demonized Elon for being ahead of the Curve
I hate to see people lose their jobs.
Another big tech company lays of thousands. What do they know?
