Please evaluate this initial offer for Apple ICT3. I think I was low balled, but I want to take more opinions. Currently Sr. MTS at VMware, received Apple ICT3. I was expecting to get to ICT4 but seems like team thinks upper end of ICT3 is more apt. Also, I think it is because I don’t have any counter offers yet.

Thought this was interesting. Across 160 teams of researchers, just about all failed to make good life outcome predictions on things like GPA, evictions, layoffs, and others. Data followed 4.5k families across 15 years, with 13k features (varied over time). Haven't looked at it directly yet, but will be turning the docs and data inside out... In the meantime, authors claim this as showing the limits of ML. Oh, and it's published in PNAS, so you know there's some big publication energy there.

Work with some brilliant people who bill high hours and don’t know anyone who has gotten it (only the high hours bonus). Also interested to know if anyone has gotten it though!
Basically impossible. I don't know anyone who has gotten it.
I’ve also gotten a merit bump the last 2 years and know of others who have as well.

Have received one. It’s 10-20% of base bonus.
I’m in a speciality group and I’ve been told there are very limited merit bonuses to go around, so they’re typically reserved for 1-2 more senior associates in the group.
Good intel here. Seemed too good to be true
