Curious about any opinions of the Siri Data team. Talked to a hiring manager who was from Netflix. Got a few questions about how I would fit into “Netflix like” culture. I wanted to say I thought I was interviewing at Apple, but I asked for further clarification on what “Netflix culture” meant ;-). Didn’t get a really clear answer other than “bias to action”. The team based on my initial interview list seems mostly ex Netflix, which is a bummer b/c I like what I’ve heard of Apple culture, yet I have had friends at Netflix engineering who left and didn’t like the culture so am a bit hesitant if the Netflix culture is taking over at Apple and working for an ex Netflix manager. #apple #netflix
Siri data is part of Siri org or AI/ML org? If it's AI/ML I can comment about the org in general, but if it's under Siri I have no info.
Is Siri org different than AI/ML org? I also have an offer from Siri@Home which I was told was under AI/ML org. Hows the overall culture?
Apple culture is the exact opposite of Netflix. Everything is super secret. You are not supposed to talk to your coworkers what you are working on.
🤣 who told you that?! Your coworkers do know what you're working on, because they are your COWORKERS! People who you don't work with (like from other orgs who you have no common projects with) may not know what you're doing.
What is a coworker? A coworker is someone at your place of employment with whom you don't necessarily directly work. This person may be another employee at your company with whom you never have to cross paths or communicate. Their work is not directly dependent on yours, and your work is not directly dependent on their work — though, of course, all employees in a company are working toward a larger common goal.
The Siri Data team is great. Yes lots of ex-Netflix folks there but they are all extremely competent
Can you share more details about the team?
I didn't like interviewing there, couldn't say if they were competent. Luckily for me I didn't get in so it all worked out
How Coupang is treating you?
How is the on-site interview process for the team? I am looking for interview types not questions.
Netflix data org is corrupted lots politics backbiting and lies. Apple will be rotten in no time.
