Folks, let's not rush to conclusions… Maybe this person was blinded by money and couldn't see the evil because it was like staring into the sun. Maybe they were paid partly in stocks that only vested just now and they couldn't find their moral compass because of greed. It might be that they were able to land a new job that pays even more and only had the financial freedom to criticize Google because of it.

I'm just saying, we shouldn't assume that they didn't know Google was evil the whole time. They must be intelligent or they wouldn't have got the job.

/sarcasm (because some people are too stupid to be on the internet without an adult watching over them. i get that sarcasm is difficult to discern now that everything has become so outlandish, but you really shouldn't be using the internet if this went over your head.)
