3.0
Doesn't RecommendPositive OutlookApproves of CEO
Pros
  • Awesome products
  • Smart people
  • Great benefits
  • Many good leaders, unfortunately they lack the power to influence (see cons)
Cons
  • Very political.
  • Some unethical Sr. Managers/Directors/VPs. They will do what they have to do to climb the ladder. They would throw their own mother under the bus if it gets them a promotion. Unfortunately, many of them get to run the show.
  • If you aren't ready to give 100% of your time to Apple, don't bother applying.
Advice to Management

We need to better figure out why the good ones are leaving.
