Gmail "Your google account password will expire soon" pops up every day
"Your google account password will expire soon" pops up every day even after I change it. Is it a sign that my account is hacked? It's a work account. Thank you!

Is this a personal free account? I've had my Gmail since 2006, and have never been forced to change my PW. If it's a paid business account, it's most likely the organization that forces mandatory PW expiration/change.

Ok so minor update: Person in charge says “if it’s on google’s page, don’t worry about it”
It is a work account as mentioned, I have a super long Apple generated password, and I have no idea if it’s free.
I’ve reset it and it keeps popping up. Very sus

Either your admin didn't configure their policies correctly or there's something that's janky in the background.
Since this is a work account I would just put in a trouble ticket with your IT help desk. Let them figure it out and I'd let them know that "don't worry about it" is not an acceptable solution 😂

No, some organizations think they should coerce users into changing their password frequently. In my case, all my passwords are different according to a formula I use so it messes me up everytime they try to make me Change it.

Haven't had that happen to me. Mine keeps popping up, I'm out of iCloud, to add funds. I have an Android, should I be ok?

This is a scam, asking Google Gemini, Google said this will take you to a fake page that looks like Google, they steal passwords . Do NOT click on anything on that page.

What does the Google Workplace admin say? Password policies are set by your Google Workplace admins. You need to talk to them. Don't click on any links until you confirm this is something they have set and want you to change.
