There's a reason these people have been laid off and Google has to run their business. While it might be that people high up get highly overpaid, I think that, in general, cutting these wages wouldn't be able to make the company recover. Over COVID, Google hired far too many employees and have only just realised that it's not economically viable for a company, even if it makes the money that Google does, to continue providing so many benefits and excess staff. While I think it's sad that they are laying off mainly the people working for open source projects, sadly, in this capitalist society, where there's no money to be made, sometimes it has to be cut.
