> Google laid off hundreds of employees from its platforms and devices unit, the team responsible for the Android operating system, Pixel phones and Chrome browser. The move, first reported by the Information, comes months after Google offered voluntary buyouts to all 20,000 employees in the division, signaling deeper structural changes at the tech giant.
Correction, they did not offer buyouts to the entire division, they offered the ability to apply for a buyout to US-only employees, and application did not guarantee you’d get it.
