Apple Continues Building iWork Team, Adds New Job Listings

It's been over four years since the last major update. Why has apple not updated iWork in such a long time?

Apple is currently hiring a number of employees for its iWork team, including three QA software engineers, a Production Specialist, a Technical Production Ninja, a Verification Engineer, and a Visual Motion Designer.

Ninjas? Awesome!

My only wish for the next version is full compatibility across ios/osx.

Apple Losing Aggressive Edge Without Jobs

I fear that since Steve Jobs passed away, Apple has gone back to what it did when Steve Jobs left the first time (1985-1997). Essentially, the company is mired in a deep sleep. And I say this as a HUGE Apple fan (I ONLY buy Apple). There is no reason that iWork should have to endure this long of an update. With all the BILLIONS of dollars that Apple has on hand, they should be purchasing FAR more patents and startups than they have in recent years. Instead, I'm watching as Facebook, Microsoft, Google, and Samsung all make these major acquisitions --- and with far less cash than Apple. The MacPro hasn't been updated in YEARS ... the iphone hasn't had a major software update basically ever ... the company killed the 17" MBP for high end users... and they can't even get their campus built. I just don't know what this company is waiting for. It seems that with all the money they have on hand ... perhaps their priorities are lacking.

Dare I say it ... Time for a new CEO? IMO, the CEO of Apple should be operating as if this is Apple's last week on earth (even though they might be at or near the top, they shouldn't think like that). There is no sense of urgency with this company anymore. When Jobs was running the show ... it was like watching someone with ADHD throwing out one idea after another. Now we just get better cameras and faster processors.

Ninjas? Awesome!

When a Ninja works for Apple... he is no ordinary Ninja.

He becomes... THE F[COLOR="Magenta"]R[/COLOR]UIT NINJA! :apple:

Microsoft Office Has 92% Market share

Office is dead. Microsoft knows this. Google knows this. Apple knows this.

Office is dead? It has 92% Market share as of their last earnings report in April.
You must not work in any business oriented company that has to deal with other companies/customers.

Despite the complete down slide of the PC Market Microsoft had a profit Year over Year as of their last earnings.

Apple as of their last earnings report posted a Year over Year loss in profit.

Google and Microsoft own 97% of the total "Office Productivity" market share.

Please do a little research before making such an ignorant, blatantly incorrect post.
