What is the 401k match the Apple provides?

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.
Received offer

I worked with my ex for a while back in the 90s at a software firm. Basically if you act professional it's not a problem. Just no pet names, even dear etc, no pda so on so on.... You have to act like they're just any other coworker and make sure you leave any family drama at home, even if you are cranky because of a fight, etc.
Oh this is also a good point. You have to be able to turn off a bad day with them and then just pick it back up when you get home if you want to ha.
I know couples who have businesses together. The key is to have business roles, to keep to yourself unless you need to collaborate - but I'd really avoid this. And yes to be absolutely communicative about feelings around competition/levels/salary etc. If you're feeling annoyed one day that your spouse makes more at a lower level or works fewer hours say it outright and let it go. (Just set up before then that this will be your MO). Otherwise, it can be nice to have a quick break together sometimes, be able to bitch about some of the same people over dinner. If you're good "friends" it will be easiest. Oh and don't just stick to yourselves. Make sure you make friends with your coworkers so maybe get lunch with a new colleague, then get afternoon coffee with your spouse. Of course, that's if you're back in the office anytime soon.
I met my SO at work (pre-Google), so i think it’s fine. We set up rules though and basically ignored each other all day (we sat in the same seating area). We figured talking during work hours wouldn’t give us any separation.
As long as the company knows you’re married and will never put you on a team together you’re good
I haven't done it but know people who have. I wouldn't do the same team and I certainly wouldn't do it if one of you is reporting to the other! But otherwise it should be fine?
The only other caveat is if you have the same role or similar function or are at the same level-ish, or technically deserve the same salary but might have some differences - you'd have to figure out how to communicate about any potential resentments and work through how competitive you both might be.
I currently date my SO with whom I have worked with for about 7 years. We only started to date a couple years ago and we actually live together now..so you can imagine what that’s been like under quarantine..but it’s actually not been terrible for me. I like working with him and it actually helps feel like I’m at the office having him around. My only advice is to figure out when is work and when is not. Those lines can blur easily.
