Some Google employees laid off in Ireland will be offered severance pay of $320,000 (approximately RUB 24.5 million at current exchange rates). The newspaper writes about it Sunday Times with reference to sources.
It is noted that some of the employees from the tech giant’s Irish offices will also receive a similar payment. We are talking about those who fall into mass layoffs when more than 12 thousand employees worldwide are laid off at the same time.
According to the British newspaper, around 240 employees at Irish offices were among those laid off, including 85 sales, 80 technology and 75 support.
It was noted that the amount of severance pay is calculated from the payment of six working weeks for each year worked in the institution. According to The Sunday Times, the laid-off employee who has worked at the company since its office in Ireland opened in 2003 counts on just $320,000.
