Google was one of the participants in a corporate wage-fixing scandal. Do snacks and foosball tables justify that?

  and they got sued for that and lost. No union was involved in holding them accountable

    Yeah, they got a small slap on the wrist for that one. My point is the presence of snacks and perks does not preclude the exploitation of labor.

    Because there's no union who represents Google, Apple, etc. employees as a single cohesive block, there couldn't have been a union holding folks accountable. You're implying that the courts were successful, but only after Googlers had an employee revolt (read: a non-union-organized strike!) against being taken to forced arbitration.
