    If you use their computers or network there’s a pretty high chance they have some metrics on your activity.

    Some employers hire agencies to investigate your social media links via your email address and other personal information that may have been provided.

        Good luck using a VPN outbound on a properly setup business network.

        That would be a major security hole, and likely a violation of any ethics/business practice agreements you signed (but it shouldn’t even work in the first place).
