Apple CEO Tim Cook Will Move His Office to Apple Park

[John.B]

Those thousands of employees are not at executive level. They're employees that are based and scattered throughout the company, where they have their own specific section where they work in a cubicle or slotted area for what ever Department they work in.

Executive level or supervisory position typically has an office Of their own, where they have dozens, if not hundreds of employees underneath them. So why would that equate to them having their own office? That doesn't make sense.

Programming/software development in an "open office" environment is a type of high-tech torture, IMO.

Which is why many Silicon Valley engineers wear headphones at their desks.

Not the same.

Ask me how I know...

If you think it's some sort of high-tech torture, well then it is for you. There's no point in disputing how you feel.

That said, high tech engineers working in an open cubicle environment is a very typical situation in Silicon Valley. Job satisfaction amongst high tech employees is quite high, so I guess it's not too much of burden for most of these people.

So when will Apple Park 2 be released? I'll wait to move into that one so they can work out all the kinks in the first one.​

Currently in beta. You can check it out in the dev portal. Sorry, no public beta will be available.

I guess he can ignore the business from anywhere!

New excuse is going to be, "they've been walking in circles" coming up with the next big thing.

I just saw the ApplePark.com cutsies SF baby clothes boutique. lol I hope the owners stick it to Apple if they want to own it for themselves. I mean, so stick it to them.

I remember when YouTube had to buy UTube.com for a pretty penny. Even so, in hindsight, they could have gotten double or triple.

I hope AP have very good lawyers. If you're in a sweet spot, relish it!

Do you expect Timmy to slum it in the old offices, when there's a shiny new place to go to?

I expect Tim to go wherever he can do his job best.

Just because there's something newer doesn't mean that the existing location is some sort of a"slum" or anything of the sort. Also it seems like there was a plan or at least or talk of that actually being the case.

Does the ring outside of his office have a disappearing treadmilll where he can walk Astro?
