Description:
Google employees expressed frustration to CEO Sundar Pichai and CFO Ruth Porat over cost cuts and lack of pay raises despite strong profits. Workers reported a significant drop in morale and increased distrust between leadership and staff. The top concern was an absence of meaningful pay bumps while the company hit record earnings. Porat said expenses had outpaced revenue recently, which isn't sustainable. Pichai acknowledged overhiring during COVID and the need to rein in spending now. Pichai outlined growing costs while moderating the pace of spending increases. The meeting followed recent layoffs, return-to-office orders, and protests over military contracts.

Twenty-one percent of respondents said success is all about making a positive impact in their community and a fifth (21%) included innovation as a success marker.<br/><br/>And while the next year looks to be more positive for female small business owners, there will still be challenges to overcome, with inflation (39%) and funding (25%) serving as the top concerns.<br/><br/>To overcome these challenges, female SBOs are throwing themselves into their work more often — but how much is too much?<br/><br/>Work-life balance improvements have slowed by 15% since last year, as only this year, 58% said their work-life balance has improved since becoming a business owner, compared to 73% who said the same last year.<br/><br/>Women surveyed feel they need to choose between their family and their profession multiple times every month, while one in eight feel this way every week.<br/><br/>And overall, 42% said being a business owner has made it more difficult to balance their outside work responsibilities.<br/><br/>To better balance their work and family life, those surveyed are committed to “cutting back on working hours,” “taking time for quiet reflection” and “being willing to take a day off as necessary.”<br/><br/>For respondents who set up their business in the last year, top reasons include wanting to be one’s own boss (59%), deciding to pursue a passion or hobby (46%) and drive to put an idea into action (41%).")

_ittefaq-full-hd-movie---sidharth-malhotra-sonakshi-sinha-akshaye-khanna.webp "Ittefaq talks about a challenging investigation of a double murder case. Dev, a police officer interrogates two witnesses who are also the suspects in a murder case to find out the truth. The screenplay was written by Abhay Chopra, Shreyas Jain, and Nikhil Mehrotra. The film was produced by Shah Rukh Khan, Karan Johar, Gauri Khan, Renu Ravi Chopra, and Hiroo Yash Johar and directed by Abhay Chopra. The makers of the film disclosed that the film will have a different climax than the original film Ittefaq (1969). This 2017 mysterious thriller stars Sidharth Malhotra, Akshaye Khanna, and Sonakshi Sinha. Clear cut editing by Nitin Baid and adept cinematography by Michal Luka makes it a watchable movie. It was released on 3 November 2017 and was distributed by AA Films. The music was composed by Tanishk Bagchi. The film was made on a budget of ₹29 crores and it collected ₹ 56.26 crores at the box office. The Censor Board has categorized the movie under UA certification and occupies a screen time of 107 minutes. The film has a non-stop schedule and was completed in 50 days.<br/>Karan Johar and Shah Rukh Khan have come together to bring to us a brand new Ittefaq in their 10th collaboration. A remake of the 1969 film Ittefaq, directed by Yash Chopra, the film has Sidharth Malhotra stepping into the shoes of Rajesh Khanna, Sonakshi Sinha in Nanda’s character and Akshaye Khanna as a cop played by Iftekhar in the original. The trailers promised an edge of the seat drama for all those who haven’t seen the original. But what about those who already have? I was really looking forward to find out what’s new in Sidharth-Sonakshi’s Ittefaq.<br/>One rainy night in Mumbai, two murders, two versions, two suspects, one truth. UK based novelist Vikram Sethi (Sidharth) is a prime suspect in two murders. One, of his wife Catherine and another of Maya’s (Sonakshi) husband Shekhar. While he has been pleading not guilty, Maya has been accusing him of killing her husband. For investigating officer Dev (Akshaye), both are suspects till he unearths the truth and finds Vikram’s motive behind killing Shekhar. Both Sidharth and Maya’s versions of the night when it all happened are believable, leaving you confused about who the real killer is. Are they really innocent or is one of them lying? Could there be a third person who’s actually committed the crime? Does the police truly want to nab the killer or just close this high profile case ASAP? Are these two murders on the same night, just hours away from each other an Ittefaq or have a connection?<br/>")
