What percentage of jobs of these are full time versus part time?
Why do large corporations and politicians love to toot their horns about 'jobs', but refuse to go into details?
Oh wait, there public.
>Employees:As of September 30, 2017 , the Company had approximately 123,000 full-time equivalent employees.(http://investor.apple.com/sec.cfm?DocType=Annual&ndq_keyword=#filings http://investor.apple.com/sec.cfm?DocType=Annual&ndq_keyword...)
123k divided by 2 million equals 6.15% of employees are full-time, whereas 93.85% are part-time.
- eppsilon 9y agoThey're counting app developers, who may be working full-time for themselves or another employer.
- josinalvo 9y agoThey are also probably considering a number of indirect jobs (say, waiter at a restaurant near their campus) so that 6% figure is incorrect

- missingcolours 9y agoBoth your numerator and your divisor are incorrect. The 2 million number is "creating and supporting", i.e. not direct Apple employees. The 123k number is "full-time equivalent", i.e. "total number of hours worked by employees / 40", where 2 employees @ 20 hours/week = 40 hours = 1 full-time equivalent. So actual full-time employees might be a small portion of the 123k, due to the workforce ofApple retail stores, etc.
