Everyday hundreds, if not thousands, of Americans are losing their jobs and even powerhouse corporations such as Google fall victim to the global financial crisis. The internet company recently confirmed rumours regarding the layoffs and stated that they intend to let 200 staff members from the sales and marketing group go.
Although this is only a fraction of Google’s 20,000-strong workforce it is still a worrying fact as this is the largest layoff done by the corporation to date. Google got rid of 40 people in February when it closed its radio group after letting go of 100 recruiters last January. This just goes to show us that no one, not even Google, is invincible and that everyone seems to be suffering from the recession.
