Google pays half the salary for 10 years after the death of the employee, the wife will get the money

Google really appreciates its staff: free food for them, classes in the gym, high-tech toilets, medical care right in the office, and even unmanned vehicles for personal use .

But few people know that Google employees get benefits for another ten years after death. During this time, the wife or girlfriend (respectively, husband or boyfriend) of the deceased employee will receive 50% of his salary. This was told by HR Director Laszlo Bock.

Laszlo Bock says that the death benefits are presented last year due to an increase in the average age of Google employees, the oldest of whom is now 83 years old.

Post-mortem payments work for almost all 34,000 Google employees, regardless of the length of time they work for a company, and for new employees, too. That is, you can get a job, work one day, die - and the wife will receive half the salary for another ten years.

In addition to assigning a pension to the spouse of the deceased employee, she immediately receives his option in the form of statutory shares suitable for sale. In addition to the pension, each child in the family of the deceased employee is charged $ 1,000 monthly until he reaches the age of 19 years (or 23 years for full-time students).

In general, it is profitable for Google not only to work, but also to die! Perhaps it is more profitable to die than to retire alive.
