Tbh, Would love to work for Apple

I think of all the tech companies, Apple is the best for various reasons. However, I don’t think I am good enough to get a job there and i have logistical concerns about working there. For 1, i need to be remote for at least the next year due to personal health probs. 2. I am transitioning from data science to software engineering but want an easy data analyst job at a stable company with good WLB while i finish my masters in CS, which will take another 1.5 years. PINS is circling the drain and i have read the writing on the wall. If i have to jump companies before I’m ready to be SWE, i want the data job to be easy so i can keep up with school and finish making the switch. If it’s not going to be easy, I’d like to be paid a butt ton so it’s worth the stress. Aside from those two things, i want to work at Apple. Wondering if i should save my efforts for when I’m done with my degree or try to start there as an analyst and move into SWE alongside the degree. Not that option 2 is really on the table. Apple is the only FAANG company that won’t interview me; can’t seem to get my resume noticed over there. Anyways TC: $250K YOE: 6

Doesn’t apple give less PTO than target employees?

Pinterest nutbustr69 OP May 17, 2022

I honestly didn’t know. I’m not too bothered by lack of PTO. If i have to be “on” 50+ hours a week with no PTO, then that would be a problem

Idk how lack of PTO wouldn’t bother someone. I get 30 days of vacation every year and I use it to actually live my life.

There are many other better places to work at honestly. Don't be narrow, Apple doesn't care for you or anyone.
