Google has rescinded offers to more than 2,000 people who had agreed to work for the search giant as temporary or contract employees, according to a report Friday from The New York Times. Google reportedly told contracting agencies about its decision in an email last week that said it wouldn’t “be moving forward to onboard” new starters.
Last month, Google CEO Sundar Pichai told employees that it will slow down its pace of hiring for the remainder of 2020, as the company deals with the economic downturn spurred by the coronavirus pandemic.
