Whoever is in charge of these decisions, is absolutely disconnected with the reality. First they sent a message saying the Ultra plan is ending, with no other option for a Workspace use to buy an equivalent plan. It was suppose to be active tilll June or July 7 , that's all. So the users are not suppose to know how they will need to plan or budget and just guess. I read once that after a certain level , the managers need to make their own decisions. Seems like someone just came in and decided that all the Gemini CLI and Antigravity needs to be one , because some other manager thought Antigravity was a better name than Gemini or whatever and started this mess in the first place. I am loosing my faith in these managers and Google.

The problem is with your perception of reality. Google doesn't operate for the outside, you're on the outside, Google operates for Google and people in Google care about themselves first, then Google, and then -- if t all, outside.
I am really curious to know about the people who are downvoting this. I really want to know why, genuinely.
The issue is that your comment is a rationalization. In reality, evidence beats logic any day of the week. Just because what you say is logical doesn't mean it's true. As such, it's not adding anything to the conversation.
Your take is cynical, but sensible in a massive org with dysfunctional culture that jades and burns out engineers until they only care about their own personal gains and everything else is secondary. I think people project their values in situations that don't have place for them and get upset

Combining Gemini and Antigravit is probably good.
But that i pay for some 2tb storage and i'm a 'pro' user while not really a 'pro'user and that there is another 'pro' package makes all of that very weird. This is something they need to clean up
TBH it seems messier to have both Gemini CLI and Antigravity
It's the same thing they continuously do with GCP: put internal needs first and put the customer last. Nobody at Google ever got fired for screwing over customers.
