Pros

The products are the best in the world - everyone has a great attention to detail - everyone works hard and cares about the products and customer experience. The company is going in a positive direction and is driven to succeed and lead the market. Everyone follows Steve's direction and if you like not having to think about what your next move should be, Apple is perfect. They are the only ones really innovating in a way that helps the users. The overall atmosphere is good and somewhat laidback, but if you want to get ahead, you'll need to work 24/7 and be the smartest person you know. If you aren't then be satisfied just having a job there

Cons

they work you like a dog. If you aren't the smartest person you know or willing to learn everything you need to know with no regard to how this affects your life, you won't move ahead.

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
