The real question - how many Googlers leave each week? What is the employee turnover?
We know about the high-profile exits, but I'd be interested to see how many middle and lower level employees are leaving.
- yanw 16y agoFrom the last quarter's numbers the overall headcount is up, they added the talent from the metaweb, on2, slide (Levchin and co.) and ITA when that passes through, and the other 36 talent acquisition they did this year. If some long time employee wants to try something new or join a pre-IPO startup that is normal, but since the Lars departure everyone got ultra-hyperbolic about the whole thing, casting every bounce or raise as some sort of desperation rather than an award after a decent financial year. My point being that departures are normal, but as Google is a high-profile company, and a great link bait, people start reading too much into these stories.
