They are barely surviving since chatgpt. Only bcoz it’s ads company they are afloat. Some moves are just desperate now
The Google money printer is in trouble and nooglers have failed to deliver on any of the moonshots
So if they are paying such a hefty amount in severance, we should expect them to start hiring any time soon. Here Hiring means normal hiring, not just 1-2 roles here and there.
Lol you kidding, right? But I'm also not sure if they'd want to hire cheap labour (just like what Swiggy did)
I can see a lot of open positions in Google India LinkedIn (Bangalore and Hyderabad).
FYI, Citi cuts another 2,000 jobs, severance costs at $650 million
Also, last time for 12k PPL, Google spent 2 billion dollar, not sure how the math will play out
Saved 12 months or more in salary and benefits and office luxuries by paying some severance.
