Having already ignited a media firestorm over her decision to end telecommuting for Yahoo (YHOO) workers, Marissa Mayer's hiring policies are now getting criticized. Mayer, who has brought in a new HR chief and declared the recruiting of top engineering talent a priority (not easy for Yahoo in recent years), has drawn heat from employees over her insistence on top academic credentials, and for wanting to review every hire. Also: Reuters reports Mayer is thinking of cutting jobs at Yahoo's Indian ops, in order to have more engineering work done at its HQ.
