When we spoke to Mencini earlier this evening about the Google hardware layoffs, she did not mention the other layoffs — but did write that “a number of our teams made changes to become more efficient and work better” and that “some teams are continuing to make these kinds of organizational changes, which include some role eliminations globally.”
I’m getting really tired of corpo doublespeak. No Google shill, I don’t believe you are becoming more efficient, or right sizing, or whatever euphemism you think will soothe me over. You’re fucking firing people. Call it for what it is.
