Did everybody get a kick out of the latest Going Google Newsletter, uh, I mean propaganda rag?
Manipulated survey results, laughable fact-checking regarding Chromebooks, forcing everybody to give up Microsoft without anyone really having a say, you know managers will cow-tail to corporate and not issue exceptions to protect their departmental budget.
Absolutely infuriating even though we all knew it was coming.
@dd All this, and half my team just got new HP laptops in 2026, so they're going to incur the additional expense of replacing ALL these devices, for inferior children's toys? I'd ask what's wrong with these guys... but clearly, it's undiagnosed.
Chromebooks are used by 8 year olds all over the country for their goofy learning programs, they’re not professional devices… And multiple divisions in this company rely on Excel to function, sheets can’t handle it.
Google is semi-functional for small companies and personal use. But for a large, multinational company with thousands of employees, this is embarrassing and an abject failure of leadership. The executives making these decisions need to be the first people let go. Just complete, laughable, incompetency on a biblical scale.
This whole Google transition has been a nightmare and will never obtain any return on investment. Nothing surprises me anymore.
