Google is offering voluntary exit packages to certain employees within its business division, according to a new report by Business Insider. The move affects select teams in the company’s Global Business Organization (GBO) in the United States.
In an internal email sent on Tuesday, Google’s Chief Business Officer Philipp Schindler informed staff that some roles would be eligible for a voluntary exit program, also known as a buyout. The memo, viewed by Business Insider, said the company is starting the year “in a strong position” thanks to employees’ work in 2025. However, Schindler also noted that the environment remains fast-paced and highly competitive.
“The game is dynamic, the pace is electric, and the stakes are high,” he wrote in the message.
Schindler emphasized that everyone in the GBO needs to be fully committed to the company’s mission, especially as Google continues to focus heavily on artificial intelligence. He said employees must be “all in” and ready to embrace AI to create even greater impact.
