Excellent technology company, but may not be a long-term career option
Excellent technology company, but may not be a long-term career option
Work with some of the smartest and best engineers in the field, and one of the most competent senior management in terms of technology.
Management can be personality-driven and chaotic. There is practically zero support for career development – basically, sink or swim. There's too much of a churn and burn mentality with regards to staff retention.
How you treat people who have devoted a substantial amount of time at Apple (say, 5+ years) can strongly affect whether Apple is viewed as a long-term career option or a nice highlight on the resume.
