What is a typical working day like at Apple?
Pros
-work with very intelligent people -Compensation is a good - if you love Apple and believe in Apple you will do well here
Cons
- management in RE&D is all over the place -absolutely no work life balance - expected to be available at all hours of the day and night, including on vacation - combative company culture - if you don’t believe in the world of Apple it come off as indoctrination -poor onboarding - no defined workflows and for a tech company all the processes are very manual and subject to error - most of management sees themself as flawless while individual contributors flaws are egregious
Advice to Management
Understand the role and operation you are in charge of and be in charge of making sure the process runs efficiently. Make clear expectations of deliverables and realize that if requirements change, so too must the deadline. Treat people with respect and acknowledge successes just as much if not more that you over analyze errors. Make sure that people are treated equitably and respectfully.
