Google cut several hundred jobs across the company late Wednesday night as it continues to push for efficiency and focus on its “biggest product priorities,” a spokesperson confirmed to CNBC.
The layoffs will impact employees within Google’s hardware and central engineering teams, as well as workers across Google Assistant, its voice-activated software product. Other parts of the company were also affected, according to Google.
Shares of Alphabet, which owns Google, closed down less than 1% on Thursday.
