Interesting read from last year about #googlelayoffs https://ln.hixie.ch/?start=1700627373&count=1
Side note: I'm actually surprised to see that some of the ex-colleagues the author criticizes are explicitly named (not talking about S. Pichai here).

I have spent more time on LinkedIn in the past week than I ever have before that, cumulatively, I'm pretty sure.

Still raging-hot mad at Larry, Sergey, Sundar, and the rest of the #Alphabet exec team. Looking forward to Q4 earnings dropping next week so I can go from 99% to 100% sure that there was absolutely no "need" for it other than greed.

The open source ecosystem won't begin to understand the impact of the #GoogleLayoffs for a little while yet, but we really need to pay attention. They wrote a lot of checks, and did a lot of work behind the scenes, and some of the people instrumental in that work are now gone.

Google's membership and foundations renewals next year will be revealing.

This guide is useful for all, and especially those who have lost their jobs so kindly share this with them together we can help them land another job.

On Friday, twelve thousand workers in good standing were laid off by Google.

In the third quarter of 2022 alone, Google made $13.9 billion* of profit.
That's seventy-four thousand dollars of PROFIT per employee** in three months.
And those weren't even the three best months of the year.

And the hedge fund assholes at TCI want Google to fire more people and to cut the pay of workers they don't fire.

One thing I definitely do not get about #TechLayoffs in general and #GoogleLayoffs in specific is that presumably you have those people because you think you can deliver some reasonable value proposition with them.

With fewer people you will deliver less. Yes?

So when you cut people in a broad spectrum like this, a month into Q1, what exactly do you expect to happen?

Between the hit to moral, the severance and legal costs, and the slowed productivity just how expensive is this?

@DoesntExist

Workers need to unionize. Not just the workers who are scrambling for bathroom breaks and $15 an hour, but the tech workers making six figures, in the middle of dealing with serious illness or IVF treatments and/or jugging a mortgage on a second home. Workers of all stripes, whose jobs depend on the largess of billionaires, need to support all workers everywhere through unionization. When you're laid off it's too late.

I was was of the 12k folks recently affected by the #googlelayoffs

I'm a designer and a cofounder of a now-defunct AI fitness company that was housed within Google's dissolved Area 120 (https://area120.google.com)

Despite this being a pretty weird time I'm incredibly optimistic about the future. I'm currently in the process of regrouping and taking some time to figure out what's next, ideally in the health / fitness space.

Anyone wants to make a prediction when Google will have reached the size it had on Thursday again?

I'll start: by the end of next year, and probably sooner.

Are #unions a perfect tool? Frak no. Any given union or collection of unions is going to have a long history of shitty decisions and problematic behaviors if they have existed for more than a few years. Unions are comprised of people are not immune to any of the things that make people people.

But I would rather stand with my fellow workers in an imperfect alliance than get fraked over by unchecked corporate greed again and again without recourse and without any resistance.

On Friday my position was eliminated as part of #googlelayoffs.

I’m thankful to have been part of the @GoogleOSS team. 🙏 You all are amazing.

I’m now open to new roles. Need someone to run your company’s developer …

After watching execs talk about the #GoogleLayoffs, all I can really say is this:

If you are in tech you need a strong union.

If you are in tech you need a strong union.

If you are in tech you need a strong #union.

After seeing what happened at #twitter, after seeing yet another round of nonsense layoffs across so many good people at so many companies, we need unions and we need them yesterday.

If you are in a union already, build strength. We are going to need it.

#GoogleLayoffs Google is joining Amazon Microsoft and other #BigTech announcing massive #layoffs 😐 https://npr.org/2023/01/20/1150234270/google-layoffs-12000-jobs
#layoffs2023 #techlayoffs

#Google could give EACH of the 12,000 employees it just laid off a $1,000,000 severance and still have $5 BILLION in profits left over from its last quarter alone (Q4 profits were $17B)

Instead, they just dumped 12,000 people onto the job market, which affects everyone, in a society in which such things as healthcare rely on employment.

When are we going to stop giving corporations that leech off us a free pass on civic responsibility?

#layoffs #googlelayoffs #capitalism #corporations #healthcare

A large part of my team got laid off in the #googlelayoffs, including the head of the team.

I still don't know whether I'm affected or not because I'm not a US-employee.
