I am an intern at Marathon what ways are employees spied on by HR?

Suggestions:
1) Buy an iPad. Do ALL - EVERY BIT OF - your personal correspondence on it.
2) Carry your own hot spot. For $150 to buy the device, then $20 per month AT&T will get you a personal hot spot that CANNOT be tracked by MRO’s HR Department.
3) Do not use your COMPANY to do ANYTHING personal. NADA, NOTHING, GOOSE EGG, ZILCH.
4) Take your company PC home on the weekends. Log on to it. While you’re eating breakfast or watching TV, jiggle the mouse occasionally so it’ll look as though you are busy on the weekend. They love it and DO LOOK AT IT.
5) Spend the money, at least a couple grand to hire a PI to find out what secrets your boss, his/her boss plus one higher, are hiding. Comes in handy when the grim reaper comes knocking.
6) Amazing that no one has asked how (one of) the architect(s) of all the massacres got ahead at his/her old job. Spend a few bucks and you’ll have an interesting positions from which to negotiate if YOU get cut.
7) in short: yes, they play dirty. Be prepared to do the same.
Run!!!!!!! Do not come to work for Marathon unless you are coming from another company. They do not respect new hires unless you come from a better company than Marathon. It should be the other way around but it is not.
Run-on sentences are a dismissible offense
Um. No such things a Mobile anymore...
HR does have access to receive reports on the following: badge access, internet use, data use on your corporate phone, emails (even deleted), everything on your PC, desk phone (and the conversations on them), login and logout times on your PC, corporate phone location, and so on. However, they typically do not look at such things unless you've done something to warrant them looking into you. As long as you do your job and come to work you're typically fine in most cases until it comes to layoffs..... then it's anyone's guess who's getting the axe and why. Lord knows HR and the higher ups have absolutely no clue who actually does the work around here. And some of us work from home or at multiple on-site locations so badge access is not going to be an accurate assessment in getting rid of someone, but they don't know that, nor do they question it, nor do they care. It's not a good company to work for. They've been in the dump ever since they split, and it will continue to fall into an abyss until they're bought out by a real oil company like Mobile.
Didn’t realize HR took over cyber security. Someone better let IT know.
Every keystroke on your keypad, every mouse click, every phone call, email, text messages on company phones, badge swipes in and out of the building and parking garage.....
HR does not spy on MRO employees. Thry are too busy with other useless endeavors to waste time on doing that. They have to justify the useless PDP, lest they have nothing to do but try to go even harder after white males, especially any over 50.
