I was Low balled to Ict3 with around 9 years experience. The team does not care about software.I’m in seg but on software team. Is it worth staying or leaving apple in an year? TC 155+35(base+ stock per year) Forced to take offer because of immigration and brand name. Comments are appreciated for option to stay back with reasons. Location: Cupertino
Location?
Cupertino
What do you mean forced to take offer because of brand name?
I thought apple has lot to offer. Like good code quality, tools, processes etc. I don’t think they are focused much on them internally.
Not blaming you, but don’t ever take offers because of names. TC first and foremost, other dumb things like names should always be ancillary (company name should preferably be towards the bottom of your checklist). That being said, you should leave, it doesn’t sound like you’re having much fun and you can definitely get a lot more with your yoe.
You should stay if you feel like you are learning and growing your skills and have a good team. To me that’s more valuable than a marginally better TC. At some point you will outgrow the role or things may change for the worse, that’s when you know it’s time to move on.
I don’t think I’m learning, lot of old and bad tech and bad practices
Is it possible to boomerang back to Apple at a later date?
