CNN —Google is set to open its New York headquarters in a repurposed 1930s railway terminus near Hudson Square on Monday — and the tech giant says the project was designed with nature in mind. Once at the end of the railway now forming New York’s High Line, St. John’s Terminal served as a freight facility and office space. Mark Wickens/Courtesy GoogleGoogle began leasing the St. John’s Terminal site in 2019, and bought it outright in 2022 for $2.1 billion. Mark Wickens/Courtesy GoogleThe building can accommodate around 3,000 workers and is organized into 60 “neighborhoods” for teams of around 20 to 50 people. Google’s parent company, Alphabet, also slashed around 12,000 jobs — then around 6% of its workforce — at the beginning of 2023.

Microsoft-owned LinkedIn is asking some workers to return to the office "multiple days per week" starting next month, according to an internal memo viewed by Insider. Unlike return-to-office mandates from other big tech companies like Amazon, LinkedIn's instructions specifically call out "hybrid workers," and do not appear to include those who are fully remote. Hybrid typically describes workers who work remotely and from an office. This memo is the first time that LinkedIn has specified how frequently those workers should expect to be in the office. Previously, there was no mandate for how often hybrid workers must commute in.

Google is cutting jobs at its Waze mapping service as it merges the unit with its own map products. "We have decided to transition Waze's ads monetization to be managed by the Global Business Organization (GBO), similar to Google Maps," Phillips wrote. "Unfortunately, this will result in a reduction of Waze Ads monetization-focused roles in sales, marketing, operations and analytics." The company hopes to "create a more scalable and optimized Waze Ads product," Phillips wrote, adding that it will "wind down the current Waze Ads product while we focus on building new Waze Ads powered by Google Ads." The Waze unit has more than 500 employees, according to internal documentation viewed by CNBC.
