Hi everyone. Can someone please explain to me how the refreshes work at Apple? When is it usually given? Is it prorated depending on the number of months I hve worked in that calender year. Is it better to join in the end of the year of the beginning of the year? Well if it is prorated then it really does not matter but I was curious. Thanks yall.
Ask your recruiter. It differs slightly between orgs but at Apple you’re not entitled to any refreshers or cash bonuses. Thats just the way it is. If you perform well you may get a refresher.
Thx guys. Good to know.
I was told it’s pro rated. I’ve been there 9 months got a 6 for my review (since it’s hard to do better in under a year) and got a 12k refresher
It’s up to the management for each team / org. I started in March and was awarded nicely. Coworker started 3 weeks later, got nothing.
Started in Feb and got full bonus ~ 10% base + rsu refresh

First year. I did not get a refresh. I was 3-4 months into the cycle.
Which month does the cycle start and end?
June-June
