If your employer forced you to either use Google or Microsoft or some other tech company (Apple, Samsung, etc.) what would be a better choice?

Which company is more compliant in terms of privacy or generally better and why?

I was thinking about Google since there were new regulations enforced by government and at least I don't have to pay for Google Docs, unlike Microsoft where I pay and I'm still spied on.

What worries me is when they start missing earnings reports and some vp decides he has a clever idea to monetize previously unmonetized data.

That sounds terrifying, but it's also just a possibility and they would have a debate about it.
