    The team of more than 40 went on strike in February last year, demanding changes to Google’s return-to-work policy.

    Can they prove they are needed if they weren’t needed for over a year?

    “Contracts with our suppliers across the country routinely end on their natural expiry date.”

    Google or Alphabet (or whoever) probably gave Cognizant a contract with an expiration date for YouTube Music. After a year of being on strike, the contract expired. Does that still count as firing?

    Filling offices is a priority to companies. That priority is important enough to Google to not give the right to work remotely to these employees.
