Google Lays Off 200 Core Team Members, Shifts Jobs to India and Mexico

The tech giant's restructuring aims to cut costs and enhance global operations, despite a strong financial performance.

Google has laid off at least 200 employees from its Core teams as part of a broader restructuring strategy.
The layoffs target roles primarily in engineering and are part of efforts to move jobs to lower-cost regions like India and Mexico.
This move follows a series of job cuts initiated last year, aligning with Google's focus on expanding its AI capabilities.
Despite the layoffs, Google's parent company Alphabet reported a significant increase in revenue and announced its first-ever dividend.
The restructuring is seen as a strategic shift to optimize operations and focus on high-growth markets.
