Does Apple have higher tenure than other big tech companies? I was under the impression that they are all terrible at retaining employees.
According to this SO blog, Google had an average tenure of 1.1 years:

Obviously this written before the big tech layoffs kicked off, but it's quite alarming if true.
- mardef 3y agoAverage is probably a poor way of analyzing this. In my experience there's a bimodal distribution of tenure that correspond to your job hoppers and your long-term employees. I believe you're going to see the lower average at places that have larger signing bonuses or other compensation that skews that way.
- azemetre 3y agoThat's a good point, I was thinking that the more experience you have the more likely you might be willing to venture out and start your own thing. At least that's been my experience at non-big tech companies with the more senior people (20+ years experience).
