Alphabet Inc.’s Google plans to slow hiring for the remainder of the year in
the face of a potential economic recession, Chief Executive Officer Sundar
Pichai said Tuesday in an email to staff.
CEO Pichai發了一封信給全部員工,表示今年剩餘時間招聘腳步將會放緩
以面對可能性的景氣下滑
Pichai said the company will focus on hiring “engineering, technical and
other critical roles,” in 2022 and 2023, according to a copy of the email
viewed by Bloomberg News.
“Moving forward, we need to be more entrepreneurial, working with greater
urgency, sharper focus, and more hunger than we’ve shown on sunnier days,”
Pichai wrote. “In some cases, that means consolidating where investments
overlap and streamlining processes.”
Pichai表示公司於2022和2023將會將招募主力放在工程師、技術和"其他關鍵職務"
Historically, Google has remained relatively immune to the economic dips of
the technology sector. The internet giant paused hiring after the financial
crisis more than a decade ago, but has since regularly added waves of new
employees for its main advertising business as well as areas such as
smartphones, self-driving cars and wearable devices that aren’t yet
profitable. Google parent Alphabet, which employed almost 164,000 people as
of March 31, has hired primarily in recent years for Google’s cloud division
and new fields like hardware.
歷史上Google很少對景氣下滑有任何動作,前一次人事凍結是在10多年前 (海嘯時期)
之後就不斷在各BU增加人力,至3/31號為止Google已經擁有16400名員工
近年來主要集中火力在雲端和硬體相關
Google’s move mirrors that of other tech companies. In May, Snap Inc. and
Lyft Inc. said they would slow hiring. Several weeks later, Instacart Inc.
said it would dial back job growth and Tesla Inc. followed with an
announcement of a 10% reduction for its salaried workforce. Earlier this
week, Google rival Microsoft Corp. announced it was cutting a small number of
jobs. Meta Platforms Inc. also reduced its hiring plans because of concerns
over economic conditions.
其他公司早先已經有同樣的動作,Snap和Lyft再五月的時候就已經公布減緩招募
幾周後Instracart也說會減少組織成長幅度,Tesla則是要裁員10%
軟軟和Meta也有同樣減緩招募的計畫
In the email, Pichai said Google added 10,000 staffers during the second
quarter and had “strong commitments” in the next few months to hire college
recruits. Business Insider reported earlier on Google’s plans.
在信件中,Pichai說明Google在今年第二季已經多了一萬名員工
而未來幾個月中,Google也已經對一些畢業生有"強力的保證"
Earlier this week, Google rival Microsoft Corp. announced it was cutting a
small number of jobs. Meta Platforms Inc. also reduced its hiring plans
because of concerns over economic conditions.
本周稍早,軟軟和Meta都有著類似的行動來面對未來經濟前景的不確定。
心得/評論:
目前看來是還沒有做全面性的人事凍結
工程師還是繼續找、"關鍵職缺"我就不確定了....
這兩年來的薪資通膨+超快速膨脹的組織確實是可以稍微冷卻一下
不過軟軟、Alphabet現金滿手,應該也是沒在怕
看起來大家對於2023年景氣還是有不少疑慮就是了
