> Apple is the biggest company on earth

Hardly.

It is number six on this list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_companies_by_r...

I don't know why you are downvoted. I agree. Personal experience says that Apple is not a great place to work at for PMs. I am curious to hear other folks chime in to round out the discussion.
