Comment on Apple iOffer (Offer letter done the Apple way)parent

Comments

Great people and work environment, low pay and perks, not immigrant friendly.

And they've been doing the iOffers for a long time now. I was an intern in 2006, and they looked just like that back then.

"not immigrant friendly"

Coould you expand on this? Is it something like "they don't do H1 visas" or "there are occasional incidents of borderline racism" (I heard something to this effect in a conversation recently) or something else?

Hm, I just saw this question, sorry. I should definitely clarify. I witnessed NO racism or xenophobia at Apple. I was treated very well throughout my internship.

To the best of my knowledge (2006), Apple does H1 visas, but they don't sponsor green card applications. When your H1-B expires, they'll have you work elsewhere until you're eligible for an H1-B again. This is based on a small sample (rumors).
