Yes, it's clear revisionism.
For example, Jobs didn't believe in donating to charities. The first thing he did when he rejoined Apple after the NeXt debacle is to cancel all charity donations. After his death, restoring charities was one of the first things that Tim Cook did.
There's also ample evidence that Apple treated its employees very poorly, especially compared to the other Silicon Valley companies (for example, Jobs refused for years to provide commuting shuttles to its employees despite heavy complaints and internal petitions).
There is a reason why Apple has never been even in the top 100 companies to work for.

Well, your comment doesn't seem to contradict that point, to be fair. - Donation policy doesn't relate to employee equality. - Shuttles: Jobs himself didn't use a shuttle. Employee equality checks out.
- mandeepj 12y ago> Jobs refused for years to provide commuting shuttles to its employees despite heavy complaints and internal petitions What could be the reason behind Jobs refusal for this facility?
- webwielder 12y agoJobs didn't believe in coddling employees. For him, the chance to work on amazing products (or in support of those products) with amazing people was ample enough reward.
- gress 12y agoApple pays well. Shuttles on the other hand, are a controversial elitist perk.
- pook1e 12y ago> Apple pays well. A company requires more than 'pays well' to be a great company to work for, if that's what you're suggesting.
