With many thousands of engineers it is totally possible for bad actors to have infiltrated Google. It's one of the reasons why there are such strict protocols for accessing customer data or production hardware. The idea is that by default no one has access to anything and that all accesses to data and production hardware are logged and audited.
I'm sure there're still opportunities for a rogue employee to do something bad but Google are way better at protecting access to their customer's data than many of the companies I've seen.
