See you as 100% disposable: Ex-Google employee after being fired at 3 a.m. Alphabet Inc, Google’s parent firm, has fired off 12,000 employees from several projects. Sundar Pichai, the CEO of the Google giant, informed the workforce of the mass layoffs in a memo.
Mr Moore, in a LinkedIn post, wrote, “So after over 16.5 years at Google, I appear to have been let go via an automated account deactivation at 3 am this morning as one of the lucky 12,000. I don’t have any other information, as I haven’t received any of the other communications the boilerplate “you’ve been let go” website (which I now also can’t access) said I should receive.”
The employee went on to say that his tenure at Google was “largely wonderful,” and he was proud of the job he and his colleagues accomplished.
“This also just drives home that work is not your life, and employers — especially big, faceless ones like Google — see you as 100% disposable. Live life, not work,” the post further read.
