It also had four product support divisions which handled marketing, distribution and post-sale product support (e.g. North American Sales Division). In addition, there were a number of administrative departments in charge of overseeing Apple’s day-to-day corporate activities (e.g., the Finance Department). To recognize the best of its employees, Apple created the Apple Fellows program, awarding individuals who made extraordinary technical or leadership contributions to personal computing while at the company.

On June 7, 2011, Steve Jobs gave a presentation to Cupertino City Council, detailing the architectural design of the new building and its environs. The new campus is planned to house up to 13,000 employees in one central four-storied circular building (with a caféfor 3,000 sitting people integrated) surrounded by extensive landscape (with parking mainly underground and the rest centralized in a parking structure). There will be additional buildings such as an auditorium, a fitness center and a dedicated generating plant as primary source of electricity (powered by natural gas and other more environmentally sound means).
