Pluspunten
- Free Jolly Ranchers and/or Life Savers at the reception desk. - Free drip coffee and distilled water. - Free dinner (compensation for no paid overtime)
Minpunten
- The longest commute from the Bay Area - Awful company / vendor rapport: vendor employees are treated like second-class citizens and excluded from most Apple employee activities. I once saw an announcement for a once-a-week 30 minute meditation group with the caveat: "Apple employees only." Perhaps Apple thinks this exclusive treatment is motivation for vendors, motivation to work harder and longer and be one of the "chosen ones" hired by Apple. - Poor work / life balance (your kids are not as important as that copy correction you received at six o'clock) - "Big Brother" atmosphere full of employees who love to snitch - Most offices have no windows: confidentiality is more important than your wellbeing - A waterfall process, fickle hierarchy - Boring work, menial tasks - Antiquated tools and processes
