Google (GOOG) (GOOGL) is offering voluntary exit packages to an unspecified number of employees in its UK offices, according to a report by Business Insider on Thursday.
“Earlier this year, some of our US teams introduced a voluntary exit programme with severance for U.S.-based Googlers, and we are now also offering the programme in the UK to support our important work ahead,” a Google spokesperson told Business Insider.
“We are committed to investment in the UK and continue to hire for critical roles and important projects aligned with our company priorities to ensure we can deliver on the opportunity that AI offers the UK economy,” they added.
The report said the exit package size for employees in the UK would depend on how long they worked for Google. It was also unclear to which UK organizations the offers went.
