Google has just warned staff that circumstances may be becoming harder. Google CEO Sundar Pichai sent a message in early July warning that the business is “not immune to economic headwinds” and that the company will “need to be more entrepreneurial, working with more urgency, sharper concentration, and more hunger than we’ve demonstrated on better days.” Just over a week later, the firm allegedly informed staff that it would be suspending recruiting for two weeks in order to “evaluate our numbers.”
