Employment status: current
Experience level: Junior

Not treated with dignity, humanity, or respect
Pros: Great cafe, high compensation, nice equity price
Cons: - Managers suffering from mental instability or possibly on drugs
- Brown nosing definitely superior to intelligent work
- Very long hours and weekends, most job roles outside of engineering mind numbingly dull, a CEO who demands work before 6am everyday, & "accountability without control" (that's one of the core values they teach in Apple University management classes btw -- it's Apple culture to get screamed at for things that are beyond your control).
- Verbal abuse and intimidating workplace the norm -- everybody craps on somebody while getting crapped on by somebody else
- Internal infrastructure (basically everything IS&T builds) constantly breaking, management solution to scream at underlings without fixing root causes or problems
- Avoid at all costs unless you really need to money, like getting abused, or God forbid want to work someplace where you're expected to abuse your reports into mindless submission
