No, but a surge of hiring could signal a new product or service, and
just knowing accurate staffing levels would give you a good idea of
how quickly the competition could bring a product to market. If I were
in Apple's or Google's shoes, I wouldn't give away that information
unless I had to. There's nothing to gain and a lot of advantage to
lose.
Furthermore, letting know that there are so many people such as Nokia IMHO would be to let others know that there are troubles. Thousands of people on a product smells of "we have troubles delivering, but we've got (for now) money and let's throw in other people".
