The comp packages and benefits are great, as you would expect.
No work-life balance here. But with so many younger employees who are hungry and have minor life-commitments (no kids, can work long hours and/or at night), if you don't fit your manager's expectation of their ideal employee, expect nothing from them. 4 managers in 4 years here and this has been my observation with each.

He even told me I’m the first candidate they send to the final interview. It’s been over a week after my final interview. What’s...Read more

A friend of mine recently joined Apple and the most repeated words in her 3 weeks so far have been “secret” and “confidential”. Even while getting knowledge transfer sessions from people in the same team! I can understand hardware teams working in a shroud of secrecy. But why software, that too amo...Read more

With a fascist, election denier Donald Trump running for president, and online forums filled with bots and foreign trolls who support him, it seems like the best way to save democracy is to organize in-person. I am planning to organize sessions within Apple for voter registration and to connect int...Read more
