Think different, they said... - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Apple

-Experiences vary (depends on department, team, role, manager, location) -TONS of red-tape (see reviews written by engineers at HQ using agile) -Over-zealous job requisitions, sometimes seeking experience that half the employees do not possess -Promotions often come from favoritism/nepotism and not performance -Current organizational structure breeds an environment of paranoia and secrecy -Contractors and vendors treated poorly (they aren't considered human beings) -Certain managers care more about their own stock portfolios than Apple's *This leads to being forced to use external tools that are far below the threshold of industry standards -"Drinking the Kool-aid" means adhering to secret rules -General lack of freedom -Compensation below industry standards (even with a degree or two) -Local community involvement is nonexistent *Samsung, AMD, Google, and other major industry names market/sponsor events in local markets where campuses are located
