As soon as people stop looking, Google will shut down the whole office. It's how tons of huge companies get around "can't lay off union workers".
They just spent £1.3bn on building that office
Even the most egregious caricature of a union buster is gonna baulk at throwing that investment away
They can rent out or sell the building and recoup a measure of that investment. It's nothing compared to the windfall they'll get from selling snake oil on a military procurement contract.
