“Ride Scoot” program
Google has partnered with e-scooter manufacturer Unagi to launch the new “Ride Scoot” program.
The founder and CEO of Unagi are David Hyman. He said that the idea behind the Ride Scoot program is to help Google employees get back to work. Or at least closer to the bus stop to commute to the office without any hassle.
Employees can have a Subscription
The program lets most of Google’s US-based employees get reimbursed for the full cost of a monthly subscription to Unagi’s stylish Model One scooter, which retails for $990 roughly around Rs 75,000.
Besides giving out free scooters to employees, Unagi also plans on setting up booths at various Google offices to sign up employees for a monthly scooter subscription at a discounted price of $44.10 per month + $50 enrollment cost. Google will reimburse the total money.
Locations Served
Google employees at Mountain View headquarters and other US-based locations such as Seattle, Kirkland, Irvine, Sunnyvale, Playa Vista, Austin, and New York City can utilize this program.
