Google Is Hiring Thousands More People Across the U.S. On an earnings call Thursday, chief executive Sundar Pichai said the company would be “making significant investments in offices across nine states, including Colorado and Michigan.” Google is planning on opening or building five new data centers in 2018. A single data center only employs between 70 and 350 people. The company currently has an office or a data center in 21 states. Google is also busy planning a massive expansion into San Jose, which is only 13 miles from its current headquarters in Mountain View.
