200 people fired from Google's core team before first quarter results

New Delhi: Google has fired 200 people from its core team while giving its first quarterly report on April 25. According to sources, the tech giant is going to shift some big positions to India and Mexico. Google has laid off employees from the Flutter, Dart and Python teams. This matter has been caught just a week before the annual developer conference.

At least 50 engineering positions have been eliminated from the company’s offices in Sunnyvale, California.

Asim Hussain has announced layoff of 200 people from the company’s core team. He is the Vice President of Google Developer Ecosystem. He told the employees that this is the biggest planned cut in the core team for the current year. We are also experiencing high growth in global workforce locations while maintaining our current global footprint.

The surprising thing is that Sundar Pichai is going to register a unique achievement this year. He is on the verge of becoming the first non-tech founder CEO to achieve a billion dollar fortune. In the five years since he took over the leadership of Google, Google’s stock has increased by 400 percent. Due to this there has been a significant increase in his net worth.

According to Google’s website, the core team is considered the technical backbone behind the company’s major products. This team is responsible for the design, developer platform, product components, and infrastructure.
