Google Faces Backlash Over Failure to Pay Remaining Parental and Medical Leave to Laid-Off Employees

The group members claim that the strategy has interrupted healthcare in addition to their parenting plans (even some who had just given birth). The day they received their layoff notices, some former employees claim they lost access to Google’s internal medical care, preventing them from receiving continuous in-person therapy. Google has made virtual doctor appointments available, but has otherwise urged those who are impacted to look for alternatives.
