https://passionfru.it/google-fires-youtube-music-workers-54075/ P.S. NLRB ruled specifically that Google and Cognizant are joint employers of these employees. So Google is subject to the same rules and regulations about unions and retaliation.
They were contractors?
Yes and no. NLRB said Google is a joint employer and is subject to the same rules as a regular employer.
What’s YouTube music?
Best catalog of any music app by far. Great if you listen to the same stuff, not as good as Spotify for discovering new music. Not good for podcasts either
They were *not* fired. Their contract expired and was not renewed. That NLRB ruling is questionable at best. The legal challenge would have been interesting, but G had the opportunity to let the contract expire rather than go to court and took it.
