Google employees circulate petition for ‘job security’ amid mounting fear of layoffs

As Google navigates a difficult period marked by ongoing layoffs and cost-cutting measures, anxiety over job security is rising among employees. According to a CNBC report, over 1,250 workers across the US and Canada have signed an internal petition titled “Job Security,” expressing concerns about their futures with the company. This growing unease comes amid a series of setbacks for Google, including disappointing product launches, employee protests, and the continuation of layoffs that began in 2023. The petition reflects a broader sense of uncertainty within the company as employees brace for further cuts and changes in the coming months.
