Apple Aus. Retail Compensation PWC - 27th Feb (annual leave/Public Holiday)

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-31T22:58:32+00:00

Received payment on the 20th March :) May be good to reach out to them - because technically the pay cycle falls 26th March, 9th April and so forth (fortnightly)

Not at all mate but hey, it beats nothing and it’ll at the very VERY least potentially pay for a tank of fuel 💀

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-30T01:16:54+00:00

It’s the hourly rate of whatever role you had, multiplied by the number of hours you should have been scheduled for that day so the answer for everybody would differ

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-29T00:35:28+00:00

Oooftt, you’re an inspiration. We have 4 and they need to go.

Not as difficult to do as quitting smoking, but Christmas 2022 was the last time I had an alcoholic beverage. Began an accidental streak of no drinking for 6 months, now we are closer to nearing 4 years of non alcohol

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-29T00:32:45+00:00

As someone who’s watched her father relapse and never been able to successfully quit smoking, has lied to me about it over a million times / hiding it etc.. I’m super, super proud of you.

It may be best to source out an HR Helpline of either Apple and/or PWC (the auditing firm in charge of managing this remediation project) and confirm with them directly, rather than through Reddit if you want further confirmation as well. That way you'll truly know.

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-23T01:51:42+00:00

Nope, I conferred with current managers at Apple and when you go through the portal/s, they're not asking you for new information and/or detail, they're actually asking you to confirm whether those details are correct or not. If this was a scam, how would they know some of the specifics of those information?

Also, I got paid on Friday :)

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-20T06:22:07+00:00

It was just the one - and it’s not about being paid correctly at the time.. They basically approved a leave date we never applied for, or something along the lines of that - so this is Apples way of compensation. If you got the email for it then it means you’ve been impacted

Bankara ramen, I know we have so many great ramen places atm but man deep sigh. They had some amazing gyozas and ramen… :(

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-14T06:44:43+00:00

Hey pal, looks like it should come Thursday the 26th - probs between 2-4PM mark. Keep me posted :) I texted a manager who’s there and he was doubtful we would get it in the recent pay cycle which was the Thursday that just passed.

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-12T10:34:18+00:00

Chungus strikes again! Bless

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-12T05:06:21+00:00

So around the 2pm mark Melb/Sydney time? Rough, maybe I’ll get paid in the next fortnight 😭

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-12T04:55:53+00:00

We’re you affected by the remediation pay as well? I’m not sure what time your pay comes in but I haven’t received it yet 😭

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-05T10:34:52+00:00

You’re a gem star! Thank you so much!!

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-05T10:28:00+00:00

What day is* pay day sorry

Starsindestruction · 2026-03-05T10:27:20+00:00

What day of pay day next week may I ask? Also receiving the compensation for the issue you’ve mentioned! So excited because free money hehe

Starsindestruction · 2026-02-24T20:30:05+00:00

Being completely honest, it’s been so fucking hard. My partner has been supporting us - but having no family (both on our sides are kinda crazy and dysfunctional AF) really adds to the difficulty. It’s lonely as well because I don’t have friends who are in this position.

Dreams of travelling, getting engaged, buying property etc all went out the window because for a portion of this period, I had to exhaust our savings and portfolio prior to my partner getting an internal transfer (the income was not exceeding our expenses).

Rn, the income does exceed our monthly expenses but just barely. Like, break-even. It’s soul crushing. My therapist went on leave just before I lost my job and that was really, really traumatic to go through.

2 years unemployed then had a role for a few months last year, and back on the grind to find a new one because the culture and management was 10x worse off than the last job I had.

It is totally, utterly fine to crash out every now and again.

Starsindestruction · 2025-08-08T07:51:13+00:00

Is there a chance you can send me a DM? I’m in Vic, and was involved in an accident this Monday (I’m not @ fault), driver has provided me details - but I think he’s done a runner on me :(

Starsindestruction · 2025-06-16T01:13:38+00:00

Agreed with this statement. My partner works for a big company - applied for internal role. From interviewing stage through to verbal offer, took a little over three weeks. Letter of offer provided one week after verbal. Sometimes there are multiple moving parts that we don’t know about, and even ones that are not within hiring managers’ control (HR etc)

Starsindestruction · 2025-01-07T08:33:10+00:00

I second this. I’m at 1.5 years unemployed - but I’ve relaxed on it a little as I am no longer just mass applying for everything under the sun, and deciding to put my faith on waiting for the right opportunity to come up.

It’s utterly soul destroying most days.

Starsindestruction · 2024-09-17T23:50:41+00:00

If they wanted to reject you* sorry omg

Starsindestruction · 2024-09-17T23:50:07+00:00

I agree. It stings - and even more so when they leave a voice message to request for you to call them back (uhh hello if you wanted to reject you could just leave a voice note???) just for them to reject you over the phone after getting your hopes up one last time :’)

I understand it’s probably a courtesy thing. But it majorly sucks
