If you know one, you know the other.
I think it's because a lot of companies have just gotten used to Google's ecosystem so it has become something of a standard. And, of course, Microsoft has long been a standard. But they basically do the same things, so it's not like skills with one would leave someone utterly clueless in the other. And some versions of Office do essentially exist in the cloud, so they're not as different as it may seem in that sense.
Google workspace is awful. Many of my clients regret their decision to implement GSuite, and a handful are actively planning to migrate back to M365.
Google Meet is one of the primary factors. Content being presented never goes to full screen. There is always a gallery for participants taking up valuable real estate on the screen; even after "Don't watch" is clicked for every participant (especially true for laptop users).
I've also seen instances where a facilitator is presenting content, but no remote users see it (despite clicking both screen share and the confirmation pop-up).
These aren’t complicated tools to use.

Thank goodness MS Office doesn’t use the internet! 😅🤪🤣
