Googlers for Job Security Take Google I/O Demo Day! 💻
This year’s Google I/O took place amid mass layoffs at our peer Big Tech companies. AWU members came out to canvass our coworkers and invite them into our campaign for common-sense job security protections at Google.
We are building a fighting union of tech workers who know our power – join Alphabet Workers Union, and let’s chart a future for the tech industry together in which workers have a real voice: go.awu.fyi/join
If you’re an Alphabet worker who woke up today scared that you could be next, join over 4,000 Googlers and sign the Googlers for Job Security petition: go.awu.fyi/job-security-l…
DON'T MOURN, ORGANIZE!✊
On May 20, 2026, Meta performed a mass round of layoffs, eliminating approximately 8,000 roles. In response, the elected Executive Board of the Alphabet Workers Union-CWA Local 9009 released the following statement: alphabetworkersunion.org/press/alphabet…
What's disgusting? Union busting! AWU members in NYC came out to Brooklyn Borough Hall last Friday to rally against retaliation with our fellow unionized tech workers @ksr_united! Since workers won their strike last year, Kickstarter has fired FOUR union leaders in retaliation.
That’s why Googlers for Job Security have come together to organize around reasonable demands: guaranteed severance, no GRAD quotas, voluntary buyouts before layoffs, & severance as leave.
We were on Google campuses across the country today spreading the word about our campaign.
While Alphabet’s leadership was busy reporting on another quarter of strong profits today, the average Googler is working in an atmosphere of fear & anxiety driven by rampant layoffs throughout our industry.
We know that Alphabet workers do our best work when we feel secure.
Alphabet is getting ready to report Q1 profits today, and the workers whose labor generated those profits are speaking out. Visit go.awu.fyi/job-security now to check out hundreds of photos of Googlers explaining why we’re fighting for job security at Alphabet together!
