Googlers to work from another location up until a minimum of June 1

Google CEO Sundar Pichai informed staff members Tuesday that they’ll likely be working from another location up until a minimum of June 1. After that, Sundar stated in an international personnel memo, future go back to workplace work areas will be staggered and incremental.

Though US states’ shelter-in-place orders presently differ in possible length, the memo comes as the coronavirus lockdown order in the San Francisco Bay Area, house to Google head office, has actually been extended through May. Pichai informed staff members that special situations in various locations might govern the business’s return policy.

“First, just as we were one of the first companies to move to WFH, we will be equally careful about our transition back to the office,” Pichai stated in the memo. “There will be no one-size-fits-all approach, and the specific guidance will vary from location to location. Not everyone at a site will go back all at once — expect the return to be staggered and incremental.” 

Business Insider reported on the memo previously.
