A bit off-topic, but I find it weird that they use "group" to refer to Apple, instead of, say, "Company". Is this an FT thing? I kept thinking that they were talking about some larger group of Silicon Valley companies (i.e. "the Silicon Valley group"), but no, they just meant Apple.

Apple group of companies, rather than a specific legal entity. A common distinction in financial journalism.

Pretty sure the labor disputes in question are with a specific legal entity, the US corporation, and not any of its subsidiaries.
