Google announced Thursday that it would cut 200 jobs in sales and marketing, which has Ann Arbor worried that this may crimp the company’s hiring plans for its AdWords headquarters.

The office is expected to hire up to 1,000 people for the office that helms the company’s multi-billion dollar pay-per-click Internet advertisements.  

The Google office opened in 2006, but as of January it had only hired “more than 150” employees.
