What makes Apple so family hostile?

 

In an anonymous survey of 8,000 tech professionals at two dozen companies, Apple topped the chart.

Blind’s Work Talk Blog:

This month, we asked our community of tech professionals to let us know if a high cost of living has affected their decision to have kids and start a family… Below are the final results for 14 tech companies that summed up with the most survey responses. The percentages listed for each company represent employees who delayed building a family. Apple has the highest percentage of employees who say they have delayed starting a family due to high cost of living (69%) while Oracle has the least (45%).

My take: Tell me again why Apple Park has a 100,000 square foot fitness and wellness facility but no onsite childcare?
