A motivating workplace and a great company mission drive the delivery of great products. There's an amazing diversity of work being done in different parts of the company, with lots of employee resources and networks.

The location in Cupertino is definitely the biggest drawback. There is not much going on in the town, and it is very far from the city (about 1.5 hours by train and an hour by car). It's a very expensive place to live.
I don't think I have enough experience to have much knowledge about this. I've only worked at Apple for a 3-month internship.
From my limited interaction with management, I don't have any negative things to say.
Overall smooth. Had 3 interviews: one behavioral and 2 technical. Heavy system design and debugging. Interviewers were nice, standard interview format with an introduction and then mostly technical questions. Some OOP concepts needed as well.
It was a pretty standard big tech interview process. At a high level, it had the following steps: * Recruiter call * Hiring Manager screen * Technical phone screen * Onsite
One interview, supposed to be with the hiring manager, was followed by a group of three interviews. These interviews were primarily focused on computer architecture and verification concepts. There was also some coding related to these computer archi
