Same can be said for any browser, any app, any connection while on the employers network IF they wished to monitor it. Even if you were able to delete all local browsing history and used private browsing, your employer would still be able to know every site you visit if they wished.
If you’ve authenticated with your credentials on the device, IT is able to see IPs visited and DNS queries and has access to all sorts of network tools to track, shape and otherwise manage your activity.
It’s best to assume that nothing you do on your employers network, even when logging into their corporate VPN from a personal device, is private.
I’m always shocked by privacy conscious people who do not have complete segregation of work and personal equipment and devices.
They could even force you to connect to a mainframe instead of your own computer in order to work, and only allow you to click on 3 allowed buttons if they wanted to.
Wow, didn’t know that is possible. Is it same behavior with other browsers?

They can monitor anything they want.

It is their hardware, they can do what they want.
