A meme of Google CEO Sundar Pichai which includes the caption,
Googlers are not afraid to criticize their leadership internally.
  • Google CEO Sundar Pichai recently asked employees to help test and improve its Bard chatbot. 
  • Employees have griped that the request comes amid increased stress following mass layoffs.
  • Internal message boards show Googlers asking Bard to explain the company's recent moves.

Google has historically fostered a culture of open discussion and dissent, and that's been exemplified no better than in the way employees are testing its Bard chatbot.
