Google will be providing its employees who are required to work from home, due to the coronavirus pandemic, $1,000 allowance. Google and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai made the announcement in a blog post. There is a strong possibility that employees will be working from home for the rest of the year.
Our campuses are designed to enable collaboration and community—in fact, some of our greatest innovations were the result of chance encounters in the office—and it’s clear this is something many of us don’t want to lose
Sundar Pichai
Google’s plan is to start letting smaller groups of employees return to campus, functioning at 10% capacity and 30% by September.
