Google employees angered by search giant's 'hypocritical' remote work policies

Nothing new here.There are special people (in the organization's point of view) and if they ask for special treatment they will get it, unless it's something unfeasible or ridiculous. Perhaps too many people forgot that Google is just another profits-seeking company?

This is actually a good example where unionizing can help googlers to bargain together as well as fight with double standards.

The different treatment of an executive is kind of expect to those of the rank and file.<p>However the following should be very much disallowed:<p>&gt; The move, however, came with a 15% salary cut, she said. Then in late March, the team was told it would be a 25% cut.<p>Forcing a pay cut due to a business decision is rather wrong. I don&#x27;t know US employment laws but that surely would have to be illegal.

My friend preemptively left Google for a remote work contract in US for higher salary a few months ago. He already bought a house in Florida half year ago.<p>It seems like he made a very wise choice.

<i>&quot;Both complained that the relocation represented a double standard in which different rules apply to executives in senior ranks&quot;</i><p>The Xooglers are in for a rude awakening, I fear. This is literally the norm in every other company.
