Great products, tough to make an impact - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Apple

- Decisions are made by C-level executives. If you come to Apple, don't expect to be able to make the types of decisions, no matter how small, you made at other companies. Additional downsides to this are the amount of time that it takes to be able to get decisions made, then act on them. Jobs are generally more focused on execution so depending on the type of environment you come from, you may not feel that you are having any impact. Great jobs for people right out of school or those intending to stop at Apple for just a year or two to get the company on their resume. - Opportunity for advancement is minimal. If you are looking to be promoted, you will probably need to leave the company and then return later. Same goes for salary increases. - Outside of product development, people don't feel the need for change (there are lots of individuals who have been at the company 10-15 years+). People are very content with processes as they are. Get used to hearing "well, this is the way we have always done it..." No sense of urgency.
