친애하는 동료 여러분:
오늘은 제가 Apple CEO로서 일하는 마지막 날입니다. I always knew this day would come one day, but when it actually came, as I write these words, it still feels unbelievable. I love this company and the team that makes it up. I didn’t want this day to go by without writing to you all: Thank you for the deep emotions you expressed to me, thank you for your commitment day in and day out, and thank you for giving me the incredible opportunity in my life to be your leader.
The truth is, no matter what people say about my achievements, I know clearly that it all started with you. It’s you who allow me to bring out the best in myself. I have never seen or worked with such an extraordinary group of people in my life, and I see more examples of it every day.
Apple에는 정말 독특한 점이 있습니다. What I am most proud of is not what can be recorded in the annual report. 문화가 모든 것을 능가할 수 있다는 증거가 있습니다. Together we believe that what we create is significant; that we have both the opportunity and the responsibility to leave the world a better place than before we arrived. This sense of purpose is one of the things that makes this place so extraordinary. Apple helped foster this sense of purpose, but I believe it existed in everyone's heart long before you joined Apple. It's this belief that brought you to this company and continues to drive what you do every day.
Together we have created something that is far beyond any individual’s imagination and that no one person could accomplish alone. 그리고 이것이 우리 성공의 비결입니다. We bring out the best in each other and support each other. 스티브가 한때 말했듯이, 우리가 누구인지, 무엇을 믿는지, 무엇을 가치 있게 생각하는지, 그리고 우리가 세상을 보는 방식 때문에 우리가 우주에 우리의 "표"를 남길 기회가 있는 것입니다. 우리는 얼마나 운이 좋은지, 나는 얼마나 운이 좋은지.
아시다시피 저는 Apple을 떠나지 않습니다. 하지만 저는 제가 깊이 사랑하는 자리를 떠나게 되었습니다. I couldn't imagine how much I would miss this job, although I have always been completely at peace with this decision. 저는 여러분을 이끌고 모든 단계에서 여러분과 함께했던 것이 그리울 것입니다. 하지만 John처럼 재능 있고 훌륭하며 유능한 사람에게 운영권을 맡긴다는 생각에 큰 위안을 받습니다. Few people understand as well as John what it takes to build products that change the world. I am extremely excited about his upcoming leadership.
I hope you know how much I value you and how honored I am to serve as your CEO. Most of all, I hope you will continue to be proud to be a part of this extraordinary place we call Apple and always give your best. When we bring our whole selves to this work, caring for each other and those we serve, there is no limit to the profound change we can make.
Apple 캠퍼스와 전 세계에서 새로운 역할을 맡아 여러분을 만나기를 고대하고 있습니다.
항상 마음과 영혼을 다해
당신의 것

Cook also issued a message to Apple users that day.
쿡은 소셜 미디어에 다음과 같이 썼습니다. "CEO로서의 마지막 날, Apple 커뮤니티에 많은 사랑을 보냈습니다. 내일 직함은 바뀔 것이지만 Apple 커뮤니티에 대한 나의 사랑은 결코 변하지 않을 것입니다. 항상 저에게 영감을 주셔서 감사합니다. 무한한 감사를 드리며 다음 장을 기대합니다!"
Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman also published an in-depth report on Sunday night introducing the situation between Cook and Ternus. 보고서의 내용은 CEO 인계와 직접적인 관련은 없지만 이전에 보고되지 않은 세부 사항을 공개했습니다. Vision Pro 팀의 해고는 장치 보안, 오디오 엔지니어링, Siri 통합, 테스트 및 VisionOS 작업을 담당하는 직원에게도 영향을 미치는 것으로 보입니다.
Gulman은 또한 Apple이 "어려운 환경에서 한 번에 몇 마일씩 하이킹을 하거나 배낭을 메는" 능력을 요구하는 임원 경호원을 모집하고 있다고 밝혔습니다. Cook is a big fan of hiking and visiting U.S. national parks, so Gurman speculated that the job posting might have something to do with Cook. After stepping down as CEO, Cook may have more time to devote to outdoor activities.
After Cook steps down as Apple CEO, he will remain with the company as executive chairman.
