At an all-hands meeting last week, Google executives responded to employee questions about declining morale even with financial performance improving.
“Despite the company’s stellar performance and record earnings, many Googlers have not received meaningful compensation increases” a top-rated employee question read. “When will employee compensation fairly reflect the company’s success and is there a conscious decision to keep wages lower due to a cooling employment market?”
With this leadership, when you unionize. It’s literally what they’re for.
Still, asking the question in this clear way that almost evokes the answer by itself is important. It puts it into the heads of people watching. Could be a union instigator. 😅
It’s also why there’s no way Google can sustain these numbers. They pay workers like a random startup, just without any possibility of striking it rich on stock options. They are likely to be hemorrhaging talent at all engineering positions.
They don’t care. They have monopoly over everything! They have your phones private data, they have your search history, they have your automatically uploaded pictures to Google drive of your butthole! They own you and you’ll do as they like, whenever they like! Now where’s that guy who knows how to operate all that stuff? Wait, he was fired to lower costs? Oh…
Ads are built. what do they need engineers for?
Yes, the suits have taken over and switched the money squeeze to max.
Am I dumb or does th article not mention the executive’s response to this question?
A decline in morale after record profits? I think a pizza party is an order.
I’ll take Hawaiian.
I’ll take a deep pan bbq executive
Pinaple on pizza, for the love of god!
Pineapple is good on lots of food, including pizza. Another good pizza is banana, chicken, and curry. Very tasty, very juicy.
My guess is you’re from Sweden? 😂
Jajamensan! You got it right. 🇸🇪🍍❤️🍕🍗
I’m not attending this pity pizza party to myself feel good.
Originally pizza didn’t have tomato either, because it only grew was on a still undiscovered continent. Now you can’t but a pizza without. Things change.
What did the original pizza look like then? Just bread and cheese? Or just bread? How far back are we counting? Originally pizza was just random wheat straws in a field?
I’m being a little facetious. 😇
My firm threw a staff BBQ at one of the satellite sites yesterday. My director was texting me about going…45 mins away…for a hot dog… standing in a field on a rainy day…
Sorry boss, deadlines to meet gotta prioritize my work here.
Yet, there’s managers who very likely pay attention to who shows up and who doesn’t and judge their work based on it.
Do no evil.Beatings will continue until morale improves.
Beatings will continue until the stock price improves.
They’d sell your soul for a couple of bucks.
Huh who would have seen that coming out of prioritising income over employees (and users)
