Speaking to analysts after the Q3 results, CEO Eric Schmidt said that the company was planning on increasing its headcount apart from making heavy investments."The worst of the recession is behind us," he remarked.

Google was able to see monstrous revenue and profit after the company was forced to cut costs, sacks scores of employees and shut down unprofitable ventures to stay afloat during the world's worst  economic crisis since the great depression.
