Process
It was good, but a little hard for me to finish this interview question. I have a lot to learn and to improve. They used Codepad for the coding portion.

Experience at Apple
Software Engineer • Former Employee
Cupertino, California, United States

Pros: Apple employees are valued very much by other employers. Their next job is always easy. They have the opportunity to work on the latest technology.
Cons: Work resembles that of a startup without enough rewards.
Long work hours. Employees are loyal to the company, but the company does not seem to care about employee retention.
In product development groups, employee turnover is high. In the iPod group where I worked, on average, every month there would be about 40-50 employees leaving the company and approximately the same number would join as well.
