>If it were to highlight the use of contract employees vs FTEs, why write it just about Google when it is an issue affecting the workforce across industries?
Because this article is about Google. Why doesn't every book or article cover every subject, all the time?
Google is a major, global brand, widely-recognized as one of the "best places to work". Seems like a good focus of investigation to me.
>This article strikes me as a Google hit piece.
You can't talk about anything anymore without it being a "hit piece", or "fake news", or an "attack", or "astroturfing", or written by "paid shills". I guess people are more comfortable when they can simply dismiss any topic they disagree with.
