Google's in-house laptop/tablet gambit may not be panning out as well as the company had hoped. According to Business Insider, the company is telling dozens of employees on the Google Create division, which oversaw the Pixelbook and Pixel Slate, to temporarily move to other positions within Alphabet amidst "roadmap cutbacks."

For now, Google is asking affected employees to seek temporary roles, meaning that the company could revert the alleged downsizing down the line. Members of the Create team are said to be eyeing positions at the Pixel team and other Alphabet companies. The company denied Business Insider's request for comment.
