- selfmodruntime 4y agoI can't believe google hired 100k people during the pandemic. Can you source this claim?
- pyrrhotech 4y agoOf course not, because it was pulled from his ass. Google had 120k employees in 2019, and 150k in 2021. Even with churn, the OP is way off
- bombcar 4y agoIt could still be true if Google fired 70k people. But we’d have heard of that.

- three_seagrass 4y agoTVCs are temps, vendors, and contractors - they aren't typically considered hires. It's covering things like mat/pat leave backfill to kitchen staff.
- bsimpson 4y agoOh you sweet summer child
