Reuters reported exclusively on November 4 that Google has, since June, offered voluntary buyouts to some employees in Canada, France, Germany, Japan and Switzerland, excluding DeepMind. In Switzerland, where Google has about 5,000 staff, the payout is one month of pay per year of service, capped at 12 months. It matters as a cost-control and workforce-reshaping move while Alphabet spends heavily on AI, coming a week after Microsoft offered voluntary buyouts to 60,000 employees.
