How can one compare In-N-Out Burger to Google? Aside from a small fraction, most of the positions don&amp;#x27;t overlap.&lt;p&gt;Also when really big, recognizable companies have their rating change so drastically, it&amp;#x27;s obviously reflects more about the PR of the company than it&amp;#x27;s work environment. If you don&amp;#x27;t consider ideology, Google didn&amp;#x27;t actually become a terrible place to work rather it&amp;#x27;s its employees, by the nature of their demographic, be more informed and apt to oppose certain policy and also feel they have the leverage to cause internal change.</text></comment>
