How is the seating arrangement for Full-Time engineers at Apple Infinite Loop campus? Do you guys have cubicles or shared office space or open floor seatings? Also, what's the desk set up for a SWE look like? Thunderbolt monitors or regular medium sized monitors or 30" big screens??
Apple Park bullpen office: small height-adjustable desk, tiny two drawer file cabinet that doubles as a seat, >= 27” monitor from either LG, Dell or Apple, a nice chair. Open workspace. Upper level guys: shared office with frosted and clear glass walls.
Infinite Loop is primarily offices that are shared with another person. Apple Park is pretty much all open space with see-through offices for higher ups.
Apple Park, two-person office with glass door and walls facing shared space/hallway. Other 3 walls are wood, floor to ceiling. Desks are on opposite walls and are 8’ long height-adjustable sit/stand desks. I’m not a higher up, but our org works with audio so needs some isolation.
IL is a mix of long bullpens rows and offices. Very low ceilings and generally pretty cramped. There’s a mix of thunderbolt monitors and 3rd party monitors. Generally admins will try to find you existing desk equipment needed before ordering you new. I was unsuccessful in trying to get a new LG USB C monitor even though I had the new USB C MBP. I was given a thunderbolt monitor and a dongle.
Open office. Glass all around. Some senior folks gets shared office rest All bullpen. Thunderbolt is discontinued. So now days they provide HP monitors. 27”
This is about “Apple Park” office.
