The report explains that the biggest problem for Apple has been maintaining its notorious focus on secrecy with a remote team. Apple software developers who started working from home this week say that there aren’t clear internal rules about what work should be done remotely. Some workers can’t access crucial internal systems from home due to strict security policies meant to fend off outsiders—which now includes off-site employees. It’s not necessarily surprising to see Apple struggle with the transition to a remote work environment. As Apple puts new systems and guidelines in place, however, the experience for remote workers will likely improve.
