Has anyone worked as an engineer for Apple?

[MacBook Pro]

So many Apple job threads are about Apple retail jobs, but I wanted some feedback from some users who have actually worked for Apple in an engineering position, if possible.

I'm mainly curious if you liked working there, what was the atmosphere like, how many hours did you have to put in a week, and if you felt they paid competitively.

Thanks.

I don't recall exactly how the Apple confidentiality agreement works, but I know that anyone who is currently an Apple employee is not allowed to post to these types of boards. I'm not sure if that also applied to former employees. So, essentially, you may not get a response to this question.

I doubt that it applies - or at least would be enforced - for ex-employees, but, as mentioned, current employees are forbidden from posting here, so any posts from "employees" should be taken with a very large grain of salt.

I wasn't sure. I've worked for places where there have been non-disclosure agreements that have extended past termination dates. Still, like you said, I'm not sure how well those are really enforced.

Notice I said "worked" and not "works"

Any feedback anyone feels like sharing would be appreciated though.

Bump.
