Google employees are nervous over the prospects of being laid off, the concerns which were expressed during their meeting with the company’s bigwigs including chief executive officer Sundar Pichai.

When asked about the search engine giant’s plans to downsize the workforce in 2023, Pichai said it is really tough predict the future and hence he cannot make forward-looking commitments, Business Insider reported.

Pichai told the employees that the company is trying to make important decisions, be disciplined, prioritise and rationalise so that it is set to better weather the storm regardless of what is ahead.
