"Dream - Google has laid off hundreds of its employees at the beginning of 2024. One of them is Kevin Bourrillion, who has dedicated himself to this American company for 19 years."

"

"The end of an era! After 19 years working at Google with more than 16 years on the team I founded, I made the difficult decision yesterday morning to finally bite the bullet and find out that I was laid off overnight," Bourrillion wrote on his social media account, quoted from NDTV, Monday, January 15, 2024.

"Although acknowledging the challenges from the layoffs he experienced, Bourrillion views the termination as a positive thing. "Layoffs are indeed frustrating, but in my case... it's okay, because I have long needed a change in my life. And I have no plans to rush into doing anything else at the moment," he said."

"On the contrary, Bourrillion highlights his desire to explore new activities, such as cycling, reading, resuming drum lessons, traveling, and spending quality time with his family. "No expressions of sympathy are needed in my case! And with that, I will figure out how to live my life!" he said."

"Throughout the second half of 2023, several of our teams made changes to become more efficient and work better, as well as align their resources with their largest product priorities. Some teams continue to make such organizational changes, which include several role eliminations globally," said a Google spokesperson.
