If you are a Googler based in the United States working for a team focused on Android, Pixel, Chrome or a number of others, you have probably already seen the new hit your work box that is offered to you a “program voluntary exit ”with a dismissal package.
After Google’s decision to combine several teams under a unique umbrella of platforms and devices, the main reason is apparently to help inject gemini (and AI in general) in its portfolio of projects to a Increased rhythm, Google now offers an outing for those who would like it.
Here is a Google statement on the issue.
The Platforms & Devices team offers a voluntary outing program that offers Googlers based in the United States working on this team the possibility of voluntarily leaving the company with a departure package. This occurs after we gathered two major organizations last year. There is a huge momentum in this team and with such important work to come, we want everyone to be deeply engaged in our mission and focused on building large products, with speed and efficiency.
This output program includes those working on Android, Chrome, Chrome OS, Fitbit, Google One, Nest, Photos and Pixel. It is reported that the Google IA and research divisions are not directly affected.
From the outside, it seems quite pleasant that Google offers it to its employees. Anyone who wishes to enter something expense can take a starting allowance and go around. It is better than Google announcing layoffs.
