Google mein phir se buyout offers!
Google phir se apne employees ko voluntary buyout offers de raha hai. Company cost cutting karne aur AI mein zyada invest karne ka plan bana rahi hai. Iska asar Knowledge and Information (K&I) department, Central Engineering, Marketing, aur Research and Communications jaise departments par padega.
Kaun se departments hain shamil?
CNBC ki report ke anusaar, K&I division, jo search, advertising aur commerce jaise core functions sambhalta hai, us par iska sabse zyada asar hoga. Is unit mein lagbhag 20,000 employees hain. October 2024 mein is unit ke head Nick Fox banaye gaye the.
Nick Fox ne kya kaha?
Nick Fox ne employees se kaha ki jo log apne kaam se khush hain aur company ke goals se jude hue hain, unhe is offer ko nahi lena chahiye. Lekin jo log performance expectations ya team ke direction se align nahi kar pa rahe hain, unke liye yeh ek “supportive exit path” hai. Unhone yeh bhi kaha ki company ke ambitious plans hain aur bahut saara kaam karna hai.
Cost efficiency par focus
Yeh move Google ki cost efficiency ki taraf ek aur kadam hai, especially AI infrastructure mein badhte investment ko dekhte hue, jo 2025 mein hone wala hai. Company apne internal learning platform ko bhi restructure kar rahi hai aur AI-related tools aur business-critical functions par employees ko upskill karne par focus kar rahi hai.
Pehle bhi hue hain buyouts
Yeh pehli baar nahi hai jab Google ne layoffs se bachne ke liye buyouts ka sahara liya hai. 2023 mein company ne lagbhag 12,000 employees ko nikal diya tha, jo uske global workforce ka 6% tha. Uske baad se, company ne kai units mein voluntary exits offer kiye hain. January mein, Platforms and Devices team, jismein Android, Chrome, Google Photos aur Pixel products shamil hain, ne US employees ko buyout offers diye the. February mein, People Operations unit, Google ke HR department, ne bhi aisa hi offer roll out kiya tha. Legal aur finance teams ne bhi isko follow kiya, CNBC ki report ke anusaar.
Remote employees ke liye niyam
Voluntary exits ke saath-saath, Google ne yeh bhi saaf kar diya hai ki kuch remote employees ko physical offices mein vapas aana hoga agar woh apni job retain karna chahte hain. April mein, CNBC ne report kiya tha ki jo remote staff office mein vapas aane se mana karte hain, un par cost-cutting ka asar pad sakta hai.
