You're right. It literally links to (what appears to be) an internal company document. go/nlrbnotice

Just because it's a go link doesn't make it an internal document. A go link is just a shortened url. You can make a go link point to a non-internal web page.

But in this case it appears to be a link to an internal notice.

Yeah, the go/ is a shortener for goto.google.com/, and is the main way of sharing links internally.
