Pros

Great pay and benefits. Fun technology. Apple has cool street cred.

Cons

Good old boy system. Lackluster upper management in retail channel. The values of Apple are suppose to carry over to the retail channel but there is no one for check and balance so they don't. Never think there is an open an door and a "safe environment"

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
