From ComputerWorld: Google Chief Executive Officer, Sundar Pichai, has warned the company’s workforce about upcoming job losses as Google moves investments toward new technologies, such as AI, according to a memo called, “2024 priorities and the year ahead,” CNBC reported.
“The reality is that to create the capacity for this investment, we have to make tough choices,” Pichai said in the memo as per media reports.
These reductions are part of the “tough choices” the company is having to make to realize its “ambitious goals.” However, Pichai acknowledged that it is “very difficult to see colleagues and teams impacted.”
The reduction in workforce will help the company to “simplify execution and drive velocity,” said Pichai in the memo, as per media reports. The memo also mentions that Google will be sharing its AI goals for this year later this week. It will also publish Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) for this year soon.
