For suggestions? They should be hiring MR members.
It’d be great to have Chris Lattner back. The Swift team is doing great work, but it would be nice to have the OG back.
Oh wow, Bob Borchers was well liked as the face of iTunes and GararageBand. Interesting to seem him return.
I was referring more to there being so many Senior Vice Presidents of different departments, but there is no actual President of that department.

Like if you look at the list, they're all Senior Vice Presidents of Hardware, Software, Retail, etc...
IMO they should be the Presidents of those departments, since they are heads of those departments.
It's 1990 all over again. Corporate, bureaucratic, unfocused. More concerned with egos, titles, and market positioning/shares/cap than doing amazing things and letting the perks come naturally. Only now they're competing with more than just Microsoft.
Grooming the next wave of talent. Nice.
Mr. Geaves got promoted before the HomePod mess.

It might be a little confusing because they are often referred to as.... Senior Vice President of Some Department. But that doesn't really mean that they are the SVP of that department. It means that they are a SVP of the company and that they are in charge of that department.
In 8Ks which Apple files, and in some other contexts, they will be referred to as Senior Vice President, Some Department. That's a less confusing way to say the title.
Yes, everything at Apple is exactly like the 90s.
You guys are hilarious. Keep the hating coming.
Yup. It's amazing how many posters are in denial about it.
Sales have stagnated and this past year. As a result, budgets have been slashed and headcount reduced in order to keep quarterly reports looking positive.
And now the churn of executive management.
The 16” MBP was delayed? No. The whole thing is nothing but a rumor at this point.
We don’t know that there even is a 16” MBP.
