    “We’ve noticed a significant decline in morale, increased distrust and a disconnect between leadership and the workforce,” a comment posted on an internal forum ahead of the meeting read. “How does leadership plan to address these concerns and regain the trust, morale and cohesion that have been foundational to our company’s success?”

    Google is using artificial intelligence to summarize employee comments and questions for the forum.

    Doesn’t matter. 10s or 100s of thousands of people are lined up ready to take any job at Google.

    Not like Google has high quality for most of its products in the last 15 years.
