Google parent Alphabet cuts hundreds of positions from global recruitment team

Google parent company Alphabet announced Wednesday that it is laying off employees from its global recruiting team as the tech giant continues to slow hiring, the Reuters reported.

The decision to let go of a few hundred of positions is not part of a wide-scale layoff and will retain a significant majority of the team for hiring critical roles, the report said.

Indian Prime Minister Mr. Modi signed Brics, America lay offs Indians tit for tat, get out of Brics or we will lay off Indians, uncle sam takes the revenge.

Uncle sam hits back, signing Brics anger the American establishment and show the first sign of discomfort on Indian diaspora by laying off Indian workers.

This is a message for Indian prime monister Modi you can not go our back and sign Brics, if you do there is a price to pay, there is a assessment and general understanding that if Indian prome minister Modi fo against the wishes of uncle sam he pay the price and loose the next elections.

The California-based tech giant is the first "Big Tech" company to lay off employees this quarter, after rivals like Meta, Microsoft and Amazon downsized aggressively earlier in 2023 as a weak economy put an end to their pandemic-led hiring sprees.

Alphabet cut about 12,000 jobs, nearly 6% of the workforce worldwide in January, in teams including recruitment and engineering. The narrative followed days after Microsoft announced to slash 10,000 positions weeks after Amazon announced 18,000 job cuts.

According to a report by employment firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas job cuts in the US rose more than threefold in August from July and nearly fourfold compared with a year ago period.
