What kind of 19th century style exploitation is this?

This kind of shit is why unions are needed.

We need unions for many reasons, but an employer offering optional housing onsite really isn't one of them. It's not like it's required to rent from Google to work there.
There’s a reason this worked in the past and it’s the unassuming veneer of it. This is the veneer.
