Many Enterprises have a want (hesitantly, need) for a social media platform. Walmart for example uses Workplace by Facebook. This is Google's competitor to such solutions, as well as a successor to Google+ for Business.

I get it. Google wants their own Yammer, am I right? That's interesting because I am not sure how many tools would we want to switch context as employees.
I hate Yammer but some salespeople in a previous company "lived" in it. I always thought of this obsession with having a company-wide social network as horrible and creepy. Teams or Slack are just about the most I can tolerate: flexible working groups. Anything beyond that is oversharing. I honestly don't want to hear about the party you had after this or that big win, particularly when I know how much those drinks cost compared to my non-rising salary.
Then again, I don't like anything that resembles instagram culture, so I'm probably in a minority.
Curious why basic bugs with Google’s spreadsheet are not fixed (or acknowledged) for months. Feel like Google just don’t compete very hard on some of these products even when they actually have some advantage over MS. Do people not use these tools internally? Or is it just broken for some versions?
