Google is the king of blind polls. People sometimes mindlessly vote for Google when picking job offers even if G gives lower levels or low ball offers.

However, today I saw a few polls with people voting for to pick Apple new grad offer over Google. And someone else claiming they couldn't be happier joining Apple from Google.

Has times changed? Is Google no longer Blind's gold standard?

Why is Apple starting to get some sudden new fans? I hope it's not due to the stock price growth because I personally feel Apple's stock growth is absurd and will have a correction soon. #tech

    It's because of the stock, the work at either company could not be more different. They don't even get free food lol

      I don't consider companies that can't match current comp or level. I also don't consider companies that have poor engineering standards, or don't give their employees perks. Apple misses out on that second half

      Yeah except google is not known for comp. And that is why there are thousands of threads about why people leave there for fb or snap or others. So your first point is moot, but enjoy your free food whenever you go back in. But sure, engineering is great - at least that part makes sense and probably should have been what you should have prioritized.

    Imo it’s mostly because of the stock. Pretty much the only news recently about Apple is its stock splitting plan. What else can boost the stock price?

    • stock splits historically do increase the price because lower barrier of entry for people buying, and that's the point.

      I suspect apple shares are moving due to iphone 12

      I am not aware of any research showing a strong link. In fact it is taught in classes that it doesn’t. https://www.investopedia.com/articles/01/072501.asp Remember that people who don’t have enough funds to purchase a stock at a high dollar value are very small. In fact institutional dollars dwarfs retail. Beyond that there are now even technical solutions to make that easier - I can’t remember the startup name but it does fractional shares. If all it took to increase your stock price was a split every single faang would do it constantly. I have no idea why our shares are going up and i work here lol

    New offers from Apple are as bad as ever. Half the TC in stocks with a no upside at 2.1T.
