You don\u2019t need your PhD in economics to know the economy is in rough shape right now due to the impact of COVID-19, but ServiceNow<\/a> today pledged that it would not lay off a single employee in 2020 \u2014 and in fact, it\u2019s <\/a> hiring.<\/p>\n

While Salesforce\u2019s Marc Benioff pledged no significant layoffs for 90 days<\/a> last month, and asked other company leaders to do the same, ServiceNow did them one better by promising to keep every employee for at least the rest of the year.<\/p>\n

Bill McDermott, who came on as CEO<\/a> at the end of last year after nine years as CEO at SAP, said that he wanted to keep his employees concentrating on the job at hand without being concerned about a potential layoff should things get a little tighter for the company.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want our employees focused on supporting our customers, not worried about their own jobs,\u201d he said in a statement.<\/p>\n

In addition, the company plans to fill 1,000 jobs worldwide, as well as hire 360 college students as interns this summer, as they continue to expand their workforce, when many industries and fellow tech companies are laying off or furloughing employees.<\/p>\n

The company also announced that it is taking part in a program called People+Work Connect<\/a>, with Accenture, Lincoln Financial Group and Verizon (the owner of this publication). This program acts as an online employer to employer clearing house for these companies to hire employees laid off or furloughed by other companies. The company plans to post 800 jobs through this channel.<\/p>\n
