What do you like about working at Apple?

"I like people and technology, experience over profit, and people over bottom lines."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Be focused on the product and the customer. Don't ramble on about your tech knowledge. Talk about your experience in helping others."

What don't you like about working at Apple?

"We're emphasizing timing people at the bar rather than trying to solve people's tech problem. We have no work-life balance. Shifts range from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. What father wants to get home to his kid at 11:30 at night They keep finding ways to squeeze more out of one person by doubling us up at the bar with two customers. We're not paid for shutdown days because of a hurricane."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Return to emphasizing customer experience over bottom lines. Let the designers focus on innovation rather than bringing in suits to the creative process."
