Nonprofessional observation from. "Anecdotal, but It seems like Apple’s DNA is still very hardware focused. People in my friends group have all interviewed there but none of them accepted offers because they would never match other Big Tech." It seems most of the real magic, long term R&D ROI, and difficult hires. Now rest in the switch from OEM to in house made chips. I would be interested in others perceptions of this. A modern phone is built on tech from chips like a Z80. However now the amount of chemical engineers, electrical engineers, process, and so on has changes so dramatically. We have large teams of people becoming so specialized the first stack software is far more times the abstraction it was year by year. Security is hard. Just like quality, they both take back seats more and more often since they generally only hurt ROI.
