Pixel 2 battery drain issue being looked into, Google says

Last week, it came to light the Pixel 2 February update has caused some serious issues, with users reporting poor battery life and device overheating. What's good is that Google has already started investigating the reports.

Here's what a company employee said on a Google forum thread discussing these problems:

We want to look into this issue and I'm going to reach out privately for bug reports. Please keep an eye out for my email, thanks!

No timeline for a fix yet. The best affected users can do at the moment is to share bug reports with the company. These are critical problems, so we hope Google fixes them quickly.
