Beijing, March 7 (Xinhua) Google CEO Sandal Pichai (Sundar Pichai) on Monday defended the new desk-sharing policy launched by the cloud computing department. Some of the company's offices are actually vacant, like "ghost towns", he says, reminding employees that real estate is expensive.

"in my opinion, they are obviously trying to improve efficiency and save money, but they are also using resources at the same time," Pichai said at a company-wide meeting last week. By the way, some people often complain that they come in and see a lot of empty desks and feel like a ghost town. It's not a good experience. "

He also revealed that many people "come to the office only two days a week", which leads to the inefficient use of existing space. "We should manage our financial resources well," Pichai said. "our real estate is very expensive. if they are used only 30% of the time, we must think carefully."

Pichai's comments are in response to a new Google policy. It was reported last month that Google plans to require cloud computing employees and partners to share desks in the department's five largest offices, including New York and San Francisco. The company called the job cuts "cloud office evolution" (CLOE). Pichai said the new policy currently applies only to cloud computing employees, adding that the company "gives the team the freedom to experiment". The cloud computing division accounts for about 1/4 of Google's employees.
