Apple Work Experiences
- 4.0iCloud software engineer (backend)Icloud Software Engineer • Former EmployeeSunnyvale, California, United StatesOctober 3, 2017Pros: Huge impact working on a widely used customer-facing backend. Cross-functional teams mean you get to work with iOS and front-end people while working on the backend. Generous holiday policy. Support for pivoting to other roles at Apple from HR and management.Cons: Secrecy and "need to know" can sometimes get in the way of learning freely. Food is not free (hello Google!). Gym is not free either, although it's a symbolic payment only.
