Yes, because it’s free and easy to manage as part of Google Apps. It works well most of the time, although lacks a few of Zoom’s bells and whistles.

Google Meets has some other bells and whistles that I don't think Zoom has comparable features for though, particularly companion mode. Being able to join a Google Meet on one device (like a phone) and join on another device for screen sharing was something I found myself doing quite often when attending online meetings and having a "Tfirst class citizen" method for that was awesome.
Zoom allows for the same thing: connecting via both phone and another device for screen sharing.
