Additionally, the complaint alleges, Apple told an employee not to speak to the press after they were quoted in the media about workplace issues.

The worker who was ordered to remove the social-media post about remote work was also asked by a human resources representative to provide names of other Apple employees the person had talked with about working remotely, the complaint claims.

A manager in a phone call told a worker that Apple did not want employees talking about wages or pay equity, the complaint alleges.
