The past quarter has seen a significant increase in recruiting at Google

Google has received warnings from experts over their overpaid employees and pay. According to billionaire activist investor Christopher Hohn, Google employees are paid far more than their counterparts in the rest of the business. According to him, hiring has exceeded the company's actual needs.

Google had previously stated that it would slow down hiring over the year's last three months. The traditionally "employee-friendly" corporation, however, appears to have been forced by the economy to implement a round of layoffs that is almost triple the scale of what is often anticipated from Google.
