 Google Job Cuts News Disappointed with mass layoffs, employees at Google have sent an open letter to CEO Sundar Pichai asking him to fulfil their 5 demands. In the letter, the staff has asked Pichai to let the company follow ethical practices regarding the sacking and respect people’s scheduled leaves even in difficult times.

Take a look at the letter that has been sent to Sundar Pichai with a list of demands.

Sundar,

The personnel reduction decision by Alphabet has global repercussions. Workers' voices have not been sufficiently taken into account anywhere, and we are aware that our collective strength is greater than our individual one. As a result, we are banding together globally to make our voices heard.

1) Freeze all new hires during the layoff process. First ask for voluntary redundancies and voluntary working time reduction before compulsory layoffs. Allow for employee ‘swaps’ to further avoid compulsory redundancies.

2) Grant priority rehire to any Alphabet employees that have been recently laid off. Prioritize internal transfer options, prioritized access to jobs without the need to re-interview and agree to a fair severance package.
