As far as the manager “being on the chopping block” the article talks about “losing funding”.
$8 billion in revenue means nothing. Is it profitable?
This is the same company that left an entire city’s streets in disarray after abandoning Google Fiber.

You're being a bit disingenuous. Your own source states quite clearly that Google is in the 3rd spot and arguably, if you cherry-pick results, you can place it in 4th.
By cherry-picked results I'm referring to posting 2018 results and ignoring how GCP's revenue doubled in the last 18 months, nearly matching Azure's revenue.
Also revenue != profit. If it was profitable enough would management be complaining?
Yes, AWS is 1st. What's your point? Azure is 2nd and GCP is currently 3rd and catching up with Azure. What does AWS has to do with whether GCP is 3rd or 4th?
Only Amazon breaks out its AWS numbers completely today, but the other cloud providers bundle their cloud computing numbers together with other "cloud" numbers, so it makes it very confusing to keep track of what numbers people are talking about.
That only means that the team's head is on the chopping block. That's all.
> 2) How Google treats all of its other "underperforming" products.
This assertion is utterly absurd as you're describing the world's third largest cloud provider, and thus one of the dominant players, of being "underperforming" and justifying pulling the plug on a 8 billion-dolar a year business.
