Pichai said the company will slow its hiring pace in the second half of 2022 due to the current “uncertain global economic outlook”. Pichai said Google will hire 10,000 employees in the second quarter, a level that the hiring level can no longer handle. continue the company.
Pichai said the company is also consolidating “where investments overlap” and streamlining existing workflows. Pichai seems to have a special attitude towards employees – to work harder.
Tech companies are laying off workers around the world in the face of a possible recession. Companies, including Twitter, Tesla, and others, have begun laying off staff to prepare for the economic downturn. Pichai did not mention the layoffs in his letter, but used terms such as “editing” and “collecting” that could mean cutting certain positions.
Read Pichai’s full letter to Googlers below:
Given the hiring progress this year, we will slow the pace of hiring until the end of the year, while continuing to retain our most important talents. For the balance of 2022 and 2023, we will focus our recruitment on engineering, technical and other high-value positions and ensure that the remaining talent we recruit is aligned with our long-term priorities.
As we move forward, we need to be more adventurous, work faster, have sharper concentration, and be hungrier than we show on sunny days. In some cases, this means aggregation where investments overlap and streamline processes. In other cases, this means stopping development and reallocating resources to higher priority areas. It’s all in our hands to make the company better – we’ll create more ways for you all to get involved and share helpful ideas, so stay tuned.
Scarcity brings clarity that we’ve been talking about since the early days of Google. It encourages concentration and creativity, which ultimately leads to better products that help people around the world. Now we have this opportunity and I am happy to take advantage of this moment once again.
