Google informed YouTube employees belonging to the operations and content creator management teams that their services were no longer needed, as reported by The New York Times<\/strong><\/a>, who had access to an email sent to the employees. The New York Times also reported that the layoffs mainly affect workers who provided support to YouTube content creators<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We have made the decision to eliminate some features and say goodbye to some of our team members,” said YouTube’s Chief Commercial Officer, Mary Ellen Coe<\/strong>, in a memo addressed to employees. “Anyone in the Americas” and in the Asia-Pacific region “who is or may be affected will be notified by the end of today.”<\/p>\n\n\n

This latest round of layoffs comes as Google is restructuring its organization<\/strong>. Last week, Google laid off “a few hundred” employees working on engineering teams and Google Assistant<\/strong><\/a>, without specifying the exact number (it is estimated to be nearly 1000).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, Google’s Director of Business, Philipp Schindler<\/strong>, confirmed on Tuesday in another memo that it will eliminate hundreds of more jobs worldwide in the advertising sales department<\/strong><\/a> due to changes in Google’s sales team operations.<\/p>\n\n\n
