SWE but interested in ML. Is Apple or Google better? especially in light of the recent layoffs at Google and iPhone release at Apple? Which company has a better future outlook?
Google for sure
iPhone (hardware) release has jack shit to do with your SWE work and I don’t see how this year is much different. That said if you value low layoffs and can perform well Apple should technically be more stable
Do you have any offers from google? If not, then I would say ask again with the offer numbers as well as existing TC. You’ll get more objective responses.

Cyber truck killer: Chinese version of EV truck
Talking to people in both companies, I feel that Apple MLEs have a lot more interesting work than Google MLEs.
Google has better MLEs
I can see why Apple would be more interesting, since in comparison, they are just getting started. They get to tackle more high level problems and strategic planning. Google is already operating at scale, and each project is more likely to have a smaller scope.
