Investing.com -- Google (NASDAQ:GOOGL) employees have initiated an internal petition named "job security" in anticipation of impending cost reductions this year, according to a Tuesday report by CNBC. More than 1,250 employees have signed the petition, indicating a growing sense of unrest within the tech giant’s workforce.

The petition, viewed by CNBC, was circulated by Google workers from various offices in the United States and Canada. It expresses their concern about the unstable environment at Google that affects their capacity to deliver quality, impactful work.

The petition reads, "Ongoing rounds of layoffs make us feel insecure about our jobs. The company is clearly in a strong financial position, making the loss of so many valuable colleagues without explanation hurt even more."
