Alphabet CEO ordered Google Fiber to downsize, report claims

Google Fiber has reportedly fallen “well short” of its goal of signing up 5 million subscribers and may be on the verge of making significant staff cuts.

“Last month, Alphabet CEO Larry Page ordered Google Fiber’s chief, Craig Barratt, to halve the size of the Google Fiber team to 500 people,” according to a paywalled report from The Information that quotes people “close to Alphabet.”

The report does not say whether any staff cuts have already occurred.
