No, just those working in product lines Google cares about.
So if they didn't for these and just casually reduced those teams headcount or moved the jobs to cheaper places, they probably gave up on them. This is not a sign of Flutter, Dart, and so on getting bumped in commitment from Google, but the opposite.
- nickff 3y agoShould there be reciprocity, where the employees are not allowed to leave while their project is still 'cared about', and they're still getting paid? I suspect your answer will be "no", and if so, I'd like to hear why the commitment only goes one way.
- pylua 3y agoNo one is saying google is not allowed to do something or vice versa. Forcing long running members to leave a team (especially en masse )usually hurts the project long term, and the users that depend on their work should be nervous. It is also does not inspire confidence that google is invested in their workforce or users. I would argue a long running team member that leaves a company without gracefully handing off a task also did not follow a best practice. They are of course, free to leave in the United States.
