I guess they didn’t get enough employees/contractors on-board with the unionization.
Right. The lesson Google is teaching is that everyone should unionize, not just some of us.
“We had exercised our right to organize as members of the Alphabet Workers Union-CWA in order to bring both Google and Accenture, a Google subcontractor, to the bargaining table to negotiate on several key demands, including layoff protections.”
Google only started accepting contractors and recruiters because they were expanding before the pandemic. They probably wanted to get rid of both of those anyway.
They will show through internal communication that this was planned all along. Any retaliation protection this union thought they had doesn’t exist.
Didn’t they file a complaint with the labor board and were reinstated with back pay?
