Here in Belgium we retire between 50 and 65, this is definitely not an early retirement.![]()
It's sad but unfortunately it's o so true...

Most people retire at 60+... in fact, in most countries you have to be around 63-65 to get your full retirement pension.
Really hate iOS 7. I got iPhone 5 and Apple is consuming more than 3GB Of my storage by automatically downloading iOS 7 which I will never update.
I'm happy with my iOS6
'Retire between 50 and 65' '? That's also a way of naming a state of permanent age related unemployment, lol.
Exactly... And it is not like this guy was in senior leadership. While I am sure his contributions were impressive and important, it is not like Ive or Federighi leaving. Some people in the forums think that any change is a recipe for disaster or a sure sign that Apple is doomed. I wonder how they sleep at night!![]()
Correct me if I'm wrong, but an engineering exec is not a design or UX exec. He's responsible for things like do not disturb and how the gps works, not the color of the icons... right?
Hopefully his replacement can engineer a file manager.
Well... life well spent! time to retire =)
Enjoy life my friend.
But I hate IOS7 big time and I won't update.
Or, you know, the guy didn't want to work the rest of his life and wanted to actually enjoy the money he earned while at Apple.
Article said he retired after 23 years of service not because he was unhappy about iOS 7. God I'm sure he was unhappy with with Mac OS before OS X was developed. With your logic he would have quit then.

Most people I work with plan to retire in X years and tell everyone. That way the company can plan a replacement.
Yeah, that's why he decided "a little while back" that iOS 7 would be his last release.

23 years with the company? wow.![]()
Oh common all the comments about ios 7
He's french , been working for 35 40 years and in his late 50's early 60's . Quite normal to retire then in europe .

Longtime mac and ios user here...
Ios7 sucks big time. 7.0.3 and still so many bugs. If key people are leaving, this is bad for apple. Time to sell ur stocks.
LOL You don't know what you're talking about. Normal retirement ages in Europe are between 65 and 67, 70 pending.
When your "modern" OS redesign causes instrumental people to leave...
...you know it's been FUBAR'd.
Enough said.
