Google Lays Off Real Googlers
Google of late has been contracting its contract work force, but today the company announced real layoffs, in its HR group, no less - the folks responsible for hiring. 100 people will be laid off or redeployed, and as SAI notes, it's a very clear sign that the company is feeling what all of us are feeling - a very significant recession.
When Google catches a cold, it's a sure bet a lot of other companies have pneumonia, or worse.

As we made clear during our last quarterly earnings call in October, Google is still hiring but at a reduced rate. Given the state of the economy, we recognized that we needed fewer people focused on hiring.
Our first step to address this was to wind down almost all our contracts with external contractors and vendors providing recruiting services for Google. However, after much consideration, we have with great regret decided that we need to go further and reduce the overall size of our recruiting organization by approximately 100 positions.
We know this change will be very difficult for the people concerned, and we hope that many of them will be able to find new roles at Google. They helped build this company, new hire by new hire, and we are enormously grateful for everything they have done.
