Looking at a role within Google Finance, how stable is this (I.e., immune to layoffs)? Does anyone have experience working within this team that can speak to dynamic?

Finance leans towards being under-resourced as layoffs and hiring freezes have already occurred. So if you get a role it should be relatively stable, even more than the more front end functions like engineering, product and sales.

A large number of folks have already been laid off and have taken VEP, so new roles *should* be relatively stable IMHO.

Generally lower upside as a trade off for the relative stability.

How about xWS?
