      Fast paced challenging environment

      Team lead, ios/senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Get to work on cool products, one of kinds (first iPad) - Learn how to be customer focused no matter what part of the company you are in - Challenging but rewarding work culture. They throw real hard problems at you and you have to figure it out. When you do figure it out and you see the product/feature being used by millions of people, its extremely rewarding - Some very smart people, engineering heavy, so as an individual contributor you can come up with ideas and implement them.

      Cons

      - It can be demanding and its not for people expecting a 9-5 job. Can get worn out. - Also the culture has changed slightly, become relaxed. - Not all people around you are smart, there are some free riders. Sometimes you do need them to do mundane things.

      Pros

      Good salary, tech shuttles, opportunity to work at a a top company. It varies a lot team to team... On the right team with a supportive team, Apple can be a great place to learn, especially in product design.

      Cons

      Long hours, unhealthy work culture, poor diversity on engineering teams. If you're joining as a junior level engineer, be expected to do a lot of grunt work for a long time. Or to be stuck on a very myopic assignment. Lots of material testing and data processing. Not very much product design unless you can the trust of more senior engineers.

      It's changed

      Pros

      Get to work on Apple devices. It's always changing, so you won't get bored. Some of the best people work here. The cafeteria is amazing.

      Cons

      There's no such thing as work-life balance, or work-life fit, or wellbeing here. The company is slowed down these days with ridiculous office politics. The bottom line has become more important than doing what's right for the customer/Apple. They say they support diversity, but they haven't backed that up with a meaningful budget, manager training, or clear planning to promote diversity. It's difficult to move within the company. New hires face a pretty rough onboarding. Lots of tearing people down and very little rebuilding.
