    I may or may not have worked for Apple. After just a few months I was approached my a major tech company that was pretty soft and they offered me about 75% more with knowing absolutely 0 about me other than knowing I was capable of getting a job for Apple.

    I’d like to see the breakdown between corporate and tech support on some of these.

    All call center jobs suck. Are those low tenured numbers averaged in?

    This study doesn’t indicate whether people take other jobs within the company (move around) which would be leaving a position.

    Surprising. But it is not just Apple. Look at Amazon and Meta also being really bad.

    Google and Microsoft doing much better.

      Amazon and Meta might not prioritize retention and may even prefer high turnover, so it’s not because they’re “bad” at retention.

    If high turnover isn’t a problem for some or all of these companies or if it’s even good for them, then they aren’t “worst” at retention - it’s their model.

    I didn’t read if they gave reasons but having Apple on your resume is a bump when you’re moving on and up.

    Just from personal experience.

    This is highly contingent on team and role. Apple and Amazon have a lot of call centers/ customer service positions relative to a company like Google which doesn’t really need to support as many products.

    Damn, I was light weight, considering working part time at an Apple store just to get some of the benefits; specifically the discounts and being able to up my portfolio because apparently you get a discount on their shares somehow.

    Looks like a lot of them are tech related companies so not such a big surprise, and obviously Apple’s situation is due to Apple Retail in particular more-so than Apple Corporate based on what I’ve seen.

    Apple Retail in Italy is fucking toxic. Stay away from that nightmare if you can.
