Within Apple Park and the Apple brand's various real estate complexes, the culture of secrecy has become its trademark in order to protect announcements of future products. But in recent months, several high-profile cases linked to the working conditions of the group's employees have undermined this strategy.The most ambiguous is probably referenced under the hashtag #AppleToo.
It was enough for the media toThe Informationdecides to investigate these new revelations. In a long file published this Thursday, the newspaper details how the arrival of Slack allowed numerous juicy leaks on Apple's habits in the office. Starting withthe firm's controversial position on the vaccine protecting against the coronavirus pandemic.
Easier to communicate
According toThe Information, Apple's Slack already contains more than three thousand channels with more than ten thousand members, a figure to compare with the one hundred and sixty thousand people who make up its teams in California and internationally. A chance for many of them, who are now much more able to contact this or that department than before.
The subjects on which the different channels focus are particularly varied, ranging from simple announcements to discussions on employment, investment or even the fluctuation of values on the stock market. What's more, certain exchanges would revolve around more controversial issues with, for example, groups organized around religious beliefs.
Teleworking in the viewfinder
For many weeks now, Apple has continued to postpone the forced return to the office of its employees.This should take place next October., postponed following additional questions relating to the coronavirus pandemic which continues to rage particularly in the United States. But this decision is far from unanimous among Tim Cook's subjects.
To prove it, conversations such as#remote-work-advocacyet#talk-benefitsare seeing the arguments of pro-teleworking flourish, without management having yet decided to take them into account. A non-reaction which echoes the multiple American class actions against Apple, not always listening to its users, even though they are vectors of income.
