There’s a deepening divide among Google workers: Those who get free meals and those who don’t

Google's

"It's really like working at a completely different company," one source said, who recently moved from one of Google's Silicon Valley campuses to the San Jose offices.There's no more free lunch at Google — at least if you're among some of the unlucky engineers who belong to the company's vast workforce of contractors and vendors.

"It's disappointing, and makes me feel like Google wants as little to do with us as possible. The lack of communication throughout the process left a particularly sour taste," one of the people told Business Insider. "We strive to create workplaces and economic opportunities that work for both the people we employ directly and our extended workforce of vendors, temporary staff, and independent contractors," the spokesperson said.But by creating food haves and have-nots, Google risks harming an aspect of company culture that has become as much a signature as its multicolored search engine logo.

A Google spokesperson did not confirm whether these meals were subsidized by the company, but one source said they didn't believe that to be the case — a recent pot pie they purchased was over $5. The spokesperson did confirm that there were free snacks and beverages in the San Jose office, along with microwave rooms and personal fridges, comparable to that of most corporate settings across the country.

Shut it down

techinsider Comes down to catering for the employees they want, and contracting the ones they don't.

techinsider It is Yahoo's fault. Yahoo! handed google their search engine business back in (c) 2001 (it is the greatest blunder of modern history). Googel has been lying, cheating & stealing ever since. The 'search engine' is also NOT even google's idea.
