One anonymous employee told Reuters, "You’d think the world’s leading Internet company would have worked this out."

You don't think that's exactly why they constructed that building the way they did? WiFi is much less secure than a wired connection. It makes much more sense to me that they knew it would make WiFi not work as well to get more employees to used wired connections for security reasons.

If it were for security reasons, they wouldn't allow work devices in the WiFi at all (which is a very reasonable policy)
