Pros
Great benefits, good people, diverse teams, opportunity for growth if really driven
Cons
Can feel like toxic Positivity Apple has something called ‘career experiences’ which are offered to employees as out of role development opportunities, but really just a guise to get labor done for a pay above your own. I found myself in a 2 1/2 year career experience getting paid SIGNIFICANTLY less than the role I was doing because ‘finance would not approve another req’. I was not the only employee in this position. MANY people quit around the same time I did, for this and other varying, but similar, reasons. Apple can be great for development and may look great on a resume but they are unapologetically exploitative, and they still expect a “thank you for the opportunity.” Unreal. I would not recommend working there unless there is internal systemic change to their development path— which is still the same as of 2025.
