News of Google’s layoffs continues to unfold, and this time it’s affecting YouTube. Reports suggest that around 100 positions are being affected within the content management and creator care departments.
Previously, YouTube had separate teams managing creators on a country-by-country basis. However, the new organizational restructuring will consolidate certain types of creator management into global teams. These teams will be responsible for areas such as music, sports, media business, film, and television. On the other hand, the support department will be divided into two teams: one for creator care and another for customer-user care. YouTube assures that this change will not impact current creator management.
Employees who have been affected by the layoffs are being encouraged to apply for other open positions within YouTube. An email sent to the employees emphasized that there are opportunities available for them.
TLDR: Google’s layoff news has expanded to YouTube, impacting approximately 100 positions in content management and creator care. YouTube is consolidating certain creator management into global teams but assures that current creators will not be affected. Affected employees are encouraged to apply for other roles within YouTube.
