This sounds really bizarre to me. A company hiring to hoard talent is just mind-blowing. If they have surplus money, they should just acquire smaller companies and find talent. I really hope this is not a company wide culture promoted by the upper management and that some middle level manager who wants to feel important started hiring to expand their team. If there is one thing I want clarity on it's this. I really hope Mark and Sundar talk about this at some point and explain what is going on
