Very hardworking culture. I truly understand why they are the best hardware company in the world
Get to work on the internal hardware of an iPhone. What is the first thing someone touches in the morning? For hundreds of millions of people, that’s an iPhone. So, it is pretty rewarding to have contributed to that!
Learned loads and loads of technical details and got to work with some of the smartest people in the world.
Insane work hours and work culture. Everyone is putting in 70-hour weeks consistently, so you better grind it out just to keep pace.
Some politics, of course. The people that have been here for 10+ years make it very hard for any newer person to grow. Career growth is quite slow.
Management can be condescending to newer/younger employees. Oh please, get off your high horse. They might be better than me in this one product ecosystem that they know in and out; that doesn't make them a better Electrical Engineer than me. Be compassionate and let the youngsters learn.
