According to some reports, only half of the people in Google are full time employee. Isn't it a large contingent of second-class workers?



Whatever fraction it is at Google, I'm willing to bet Cisco's is significantly larger, especially on "core-business" teams whose work is mentioned in analyst calls


Orders of magnitude.


Google has a two-class system for employees.

Cisco mostly eliminated the upper tranch of their two-class system.
