Google has HSTS so requests will be prematurely terminated, however it'll still be a huge DDoS attack.

Well if you control the domain you can easily get an SSL cert (except some clients might pin the CA for google.com).
IIRC, all Chrome users are pinned for *.google.com
However, chrome will still trust certs issued for Google domains that come from non-Google trusted issuers (things in your local trusted keystore)

It sucks because now your employee can MITM you for gmail/google chat/etc

Certificates are pinned too.
