Google has reportedly laid off its entire Python team, adding to the list of job cuts in the tech giant ahead of its annual developer conference in May.
What Happened?
According to reports, Google has laid off staff across key teams like Flutter, Dart, and Python. Some employees have taken to social media to share their stories, claiming that the entire Python team was let go by Google. Python is a major code used in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.
New Team in Munich
However, Google hasn't eliminated its Python team entirely but has replaced the existing team with another group based in Munich. Some users suggest that this move is aimed at cutting costs by exploring cheaper options outside the US.
Google's Response
In response to these reports, Google spokesperson Alex Garcia-Kummert told TechCrunch, "We're responsibly investing in our company's biggest priorities and the significant opportunities ahead." He added, "Throughout the second half of 2023 and into 2024, a number of our teams made changes to become more efficient... simplifying our structures to give employees more opportunity to work on our most innovative advances."

Employee Reactions
A product manager at Google's Dart and Flutter language mentioned on X, "The layoffs were decided at least a couple of layers above our team and affected a lot of teams... Lots of good folks got bad news and lots of great projects lost people."
An employee, Matt Hu, described the night he learned about his layoff on LinkedIn. Matt, a Software Engineer at Google for the last two years, is staying in the US on an H-1B visa and originally hails from China.
Google's Support
Google has assured that it will support all affected employees according to local requirements, providing them with time to search for different roles at Google or elsewhere, access to outplacement services, and severance, as reported by TechCrunch.
