Very cliquey. Very clear social hierarchy. If you’re not on the team when previous or current gen product development, you’re a second class citizen to do what the OGs don’t want to do or mess that they created.
Company tries to be run at a
fast pace like a typical Silicon Valley company but has none of the agility required. Lots of internal system slowing stuff down. Suppliers and vendors could care less to help you because volume is so low. But in meetings engineers are expected to have response in a day. intuitive just isn’t Apple.
But there are plenty of ex Apple employees that will proudly proclaim that back at Apple things could’ve been done in 30 min or yesterday. I wonder why they left Apple and came here if they were so great at Apple? Maybe they’re here to save us? lol
Very non inclusive like I mentioned and very obvious preferential treatment. Some people can go to meetings with no major updates for weeks while some have to have an update every hour.
If you’re sick because of your kid is sick. And you take 2-3 sick days, your boss will ask “you seem to be sick a lot, why is that?”
And he will never bother to ask if you’re doing better. Just did you do this yet? What’s taking so long? (When he asked 30min ago)
Overall very toxic environment with a lot of nice language and advertisement to cover it up.
