Google Cutting 200 Sales & Marketing Jobs

Google is cutting its sales and marketing staff by nearly 200 positions, the biggest round of layoffs in the company’s history.

The cuts were announced on the company blog.

The Mountain View, California search engine giant laid off 100 recruiters earlier this year, and will eliminate approximately 40 positions as it shuts its radio unit.

In Q4 2008 Google had 20,222 full-time employees.
