About Google News, Google says, ``We are actively involved in revitalizing the information ecosystem, and Google News is part of a long-term investment in revitalizing it.''
However, in October 2023, it was revealed that approximately 45 employees in the news department had been laid off. In an interview with the news site CNBC, Google said, ``We have made changes internally to streamline our organization, which will affect some of our employees.We are looking forward to new work opportunities at Google and beyond. We will provide support through a transition period, retirement benefits, and re-employment support services so that they can obtain the best possible benefits.'
The company also states that this personnel reduction will not have any impact on the posting of incorrect information or deterioration of information quality.
On the other hand, a staff member who remains in the news department said, ``(The staff members who were laid off this time) are some of the brightest and best people I've ever worked with. Without them, (Google News) will definitely be lost. It's going to ruin me,'' he says, expressing his feelings on the business social media platform LinkedIn.
Google is carrying out large-scale personnel reductions through 2023, and in January 2023, approximately 12,000 people, equivalent to 6% of all employees, were laid off . In September 2023, the company announced that it had laid off hundreds of employees in its recruitment department.
