Google employees are expressing frustration over the company's updated hybrid work policy, which includes Badge tracking and attendance being included in performance reviews. Some employees feel that management is overreaching in its oversight of physical attendance and treating them like schoolchildren. There is also increased uncertainty about the future for employees who moved to different cities and states after being cleared to work remotely. Google spokesperson Ryan Lamont said that the badge data collected is only "aggregated" for company leaders and that the three-day policy has been in place for over a year and is now being updated.
