If you're a member of an unusual religious group in California that believes most people exist in a state of "waking sleep", you might be able to get a job at the search engine.
The New York Times reported today that a group called the Fellowship of Friends, which one of the story's reporters described as a "cult-like religious sect," gained power at the tech giant and began to hire more members to as many positions as possible. The New York Times says the takeover has been going on for years, but only came to light because of a lawsuit.
Kevin Lloyd said that once he became aware of the situation, he became responsible. You can't see anything.
According to the suit, the group built its influence by running a hiring agency that placed contractors from the sect in open roles at the company.
Lloyd's case is still in the discovery phase and it may not look good for the defendants. In 2008, Lloyd's lawyer won $6.5 million in damages for a client who was denied a promotion because she wasn't a fellowship member.
The New York Times reported that the group's founder claimed to have been contacted by "angelic incarnations" of dead arts figures, including Leonardo da Vinci.
The New York Times spoke to a journalist who spent three years investigating the Fellowship and its dark secrets.
There are many questions that still need to be answered. As more information is made public, we will keep an eye on this trial.
