Google has a shell company, Cognizant, that hires and subcontracts people to Google. When the workers unionize, they're unionizing against cognizant, not Google. The workers are trying to say otherwise, will more than likely need a court case to sort it out.
Cognizant is very much NOT a Google shell company, they are a third-party contractor with business in healthcare, tech, energy, insurance, education, etc.
My bad, I was thinking of Amazon and their delivery "companies"
This isn't right. Cognizant are a well known systems integrator. In Australia alone recently they bought out some of the best local SIs just to get presence - contino and Servian, with a rumoured third (versent) on the way..
Theyre a body shop looking to grow their born in the cloud generstion of engineers.
