Alphabet Shows the Mega-Layoff Announcements Were Just That, Headcount Dropped Far Less and is Rising Again

I especially love the part where they say that X/Twitter not hiring after their layoffs has left many people wondering what those employees were doing in the first place. As someone who has never been very "into" Twitter, even I can see that the site has gone way downhill since Musk and his layoffs. I don't have to wonder what the laid off employees were doing because I know by a quick glance that whatever they were doing, they were doing it better than it's being done now.
