      Truly innovative company where individual contributions count

      Software engineering manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval

      Pros

      One of the most interesting companies to work at in the Valley. Individual contributions count. Cool hardware products, great software products, smart people, fantastic stock price ;-). Innovation is something that we actually do, rather than just talk about. Plenty of opportunity to work on different products and get some job variation.

      Cons

      Benefits good, but not as good as they could be. The product secrecy gets to some people. Insufficient stock compensation for lower-grade employees.

      The sausages taste great, but the factory is just as messy

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Your work gets in the hands of millions. When you win the occasional battle to get something done right, you can help a lot of people.

      Cons

      Apple is hyper-secretive, which is both frustrating in principle and make it difficult to do your job. (1) A lot of wheels get reinvented every week. (2) The feeling that you (as an engineer) aren't trusted *really* bothers me. Besides, all the leaks come from marketing and ops anyway.

      Great products and people, subpar project scheduling and pay

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Best products in the industry, period. You'll feel the envy of the industry working here. Highly talented, interesting, motivated coworkers that will drive you to learn & create. A place that you're proud to tell people you work. Excellent perks for commuters.

      Cons

      Often unrealistic project schedules lead to semi-permanent crunch mode. Unproductive employees can carve out a niche and stick around way too long without contributing- this leeches from morale. Caffe Macs is largely mediocre, although it has seen some improvements as of late. Compensation and bonuses are uninspiring because they know you don't want to work anywhere else, which is understandable but still unfortunate.
