Apple

Working at Apple means that the things you work on get into the hands of hundreds of millions of people, literally. It's a lot of pressure to get things right and drives one to do the best work of their lives. Two-plus years later, I'm still blown away by the talent and creativity of people I work with.

It's a lot of work. Teams are usually strapped for resources and under pressure to deliver on strict timelines, leading to high stress and long hours at certain times during the year.

Keep fighting for what's right.

Renewable energy, civil liberties, working conditions – everything.

I couldn't be prouder of that aspect of the company. In the end, it's about a lot more than profits and earnings.
