Do people just assume she's telling a truthful story?
I wonder that because I worked there for years and anything remotely like what she claims was implausible when I was there, and would have been immediately corrected with impunity had such occurred.
I mean there's security all over and they're not in a managerial chain, so something seems very difficult about her claims to me.
In saying that, maybe she did have some entirely crazy people around her. Evidence would be stronger than conjecture, and I hope she has some if such happened.
Are you familiar with Radar? It's an internal bug database that is used by all the teams inside of Apple. She redacted identifying information in the screenshot, but anyone with the appropriate amount of disclosure at Apple (several hundred, if not thousands of people) can go and look up the unredacted version where all the names and context is visible. Many with the ability to do so have confirmed it.

Would you happen to have a link handy? I don't mean to be adversarial. That screenshot is just so incredibly outlandish that it comes across as something from an overdone movie and I honestly find it difficult to take at face value.
Basic human decency and social norms aside, I just can't comprehend what manager would fail to recognize something like that committed in writing as a huge legal liability.
Sure, here's one: https://twitter.com/vllry/status/1427360794925158425. I am not joking when I say many, many people had access to this–while I am not at Apple, I know people who are and they could see it too. (FWIW, I was on the Radar team previously, and this is exactly what it looks like–faking it this exactly would require a lot of effort.)

I have no reason to doubt that she's telling the trust from her perspective, but that being said, there are always two sides to a story.

To be honest, reading her published tweets/documents, she mostly appears to be someone who complains to HR about everything. Judging by the way her managers "dismiss" her complaints with (attempted) humor (refill whiskey bottles with fruit color and water, suggest which NERF gun she should buy, etc), i'm guessing she's been at it for a while. The sign that her managers purposely leave her out of important meetings could also be a signal that "she's more trouble than beneficial".
Not saying she was wrong (or correct) when she complained, but it would certainly explain some of the hostility being shown by her team members. Reading the parts she complains about it actually sounds like a really nice and accepting/inclusive workplace, and a place i would love to work. Planning a NERF war, and your managers only concern is if you're too loud to disturb other teams :)
In any case, she has published multiple (redacted) confidential documents, so i wouldn't get my hope up for a big settlement.
