Again, that’s an anecdote. That’s one person. It doesn’t tell us anything. Google has a medium sized city’s worth of employees and former employees.
And talk about choosing a bad example:
This guy’s story makes it clear that it is his personal path to not prioritize immediate re-employment. It says right there he got a big Google severance, doesn’t spend a lot of money, and is taking his time and finishing university and traveling. He’s also trying to change career paths. He wasn’t a data scientist at Google, he wants to change over to doing dats science, so he’s seeing internships.
He legitimately doesn’t even count as unemployed. He’s a student and doesn’t even want to start working until August.
