Yeah, like, what the fuck? Why on earth would anyone do that? Do they not own a phone?
Browser history is the most minor part. You should assume that your work sees everything you do to at least some degree. They may have full access to everything on your computer and private browsing won’t do anything against that. It’s also common that work computers would use a work owned VPN, so they’ll at least know what sites you’re visiting. HTTPS prevents knowing exactly what you’re doing, but a VPN provider will know what IPs you’re connecting too and thus will have a high level of what you’re doing.
Y’all using your work computers for stuff other than work? That’s the real danger

Also, DNS requests aren’t typically encrypted, so they’ll know the domains you’re visiting without having to go through IPs.
Because I convinced my work to get me a linux laptop on the condition I would not get any IT support.
I don’t abuse the privilege, but I can at least check my bank account without the man-in-the-middle TLS spyware or remote monitoring software.
I can’t access anything on the corporate network because I don’t have the root certs. Everything is in the cloud now so I’m not really missing much.
You clear your browser cache because you use your work computer for dangerous things
I clear my browser cache because our code base is absolute dog shite.
We are not the same.
