Minpunten
- IS&T is the worst place to work for engineers. Swamped with 3rd party contractors, indian body-shop mostly, management treats them terribly. Rude, unprofessional and unethical work culture. Senior leadership within IS&T are terrible, egoistic megalomaniac, with zero leadership skills. They don't know how to lead by example. - There is no place for engineers here in this group. Rampant politics and horrible work culture. Managers in this group are nothing but "project managers", who have no technical / engineering acumen, and have no eye towards architecture, code or good engineering practices. They treat engineers like second class citizens. These managers have no interest in career growth and development of their employees. All they care about is themselves and their RSU refreshers, appeasing their bosses anyway possible to get there. - Most of the teams in IS&T build internal and corporate tools/applications. and they are dismal at that, from infrastructure to development processes, terrible..terrible !! You won't be working on anything world changing. - If you think you can change groups easily, you are sadly mistaken. It is very difficult to change groups/departments within Apple. You need to let your manager of your interest first, then go through the entire recruitment process, as if you are an external candidate, and if for whatever reason, you do not end up landing that new position, you would face extreme retaliation in your current team, your current manager would screw your career up. You would be ostracized, and he/she would make sure you have no future left in Apple. - IS&T has a bad reputation within apple, and every other group within apple treats IS&T folks that way. Other engineering groups are treated better. In short, apple has this subtle class-based culture. Not everyone is treated equally and respect. If you are an engineer and thinking about joining Apple and IS&T assuming you would be able to do amazing engineering work, you are sadly mistaken. IS&T is the place where engineers come to destroy their career. My personal advice - Stay away from this group.
