    Is the RSU of 220k per year ? Or is it spread across 4 years ?

    The TC offered is 235k, not 420k. You’re calculating it incorrectly, divide RSUs by 4.

    Run away fast, search blind for horror stories. The team only hires people from a particular South Indian state.

    This is True for Apple Maps. I know a lot of friends personally there.

    Run Run away as fast as you can.

    I will go further and say that Working at Salesforce, Amazon, Vmware, Citrix is much better than working at Apple Maps

    Apple Maps != Faang

    Please run away

    Also the offer is low for ICT4. I got this offer for ICT3. I think nowadays its also a lowball for ICT3

    The refreshers in Apple Maps are very very poor. Plus there is no career growth and no exciting projects/learning opportunities.

    Apple Maps doesn’t make money. Unlike Google it doesn’t monetize user’s travel history (data). Its revenue is tied to iphone sales (hardware)

    As there is no direct revenue from apple maps, refreshers and bonuses are poor. Only inner circle gets the bonuses and refreshers.

    Other teams like AMP, Apple Pay, Health etc have direct revenue and pay really well which is on par with other FAANGs.
