A senior manager sued Apple Inc., claiming he was denied a retention bonus of at least $800,000 because at age 64 he was no longer seen “as part of Apple’s future.”
Donald Shruhan Jr., who has worked for Apple since 2008 and is now 67, alleges in a lawsuit filed Monday in federal court in San Jose, California, that he wasn’t awarded restricted stock units or a merit increase in 2019 even though he was given an excellent performance review. Shruhan claims he was asked last year to submit his plan for retirement, although he hadn’t indicated any such intention.
