Pros

I was part of the Apple + IBM partnership program while working at IBM. Our goal was to build iOS-only apps.

The projects were not rushed and well-funded, with a good amount of resources (programmers, designers, QA, PMs, etc.).

Good work environment and benefits.

Cons

I noticed the higher-ups in the company, however, knew nothing about iOS development. The software architects only drew diagrams for us to actually implement and code everything.

There were sometimes ego problems between architects and programmers in terms of who was coding better or doing things better, etc., which I thought to be unprofessional.

Was this helpful?
