Google, which operates the world’s leading search engine, has laid off 887 workers in New York City according to a filing with the NY State Labor Department.
The cutbacks were made by Alphabet, the parent company of Google, as part of 12,000 jobs eliminated worldwide.
NYC is home to the second largest location for Google employees with over 12,000 workers.
The layoffs are the first for Google, which has grown employment steadily until last year, as tech stocks plummeted and interest rates increased.
The move is likely a shock for employees since Google has been seen as one of the best and most prestigious companies to work for since it was founded.
Here are locations in NYC where jobs were cut according to WARN filing with the NY Labor Department:
154 W 14th Street, New York, NY 10011 (1 employee affected)
450 West 15th Street, New York, NY 10014 (5 employees affected)
