Pros

Great in terms of having Apple on your CV, as it is a prominent name in technology today. Great people that you work with, and a moderately good salary for retail.

Cons

They take the idea of everything being 'the same' too far - they treat small stores the same as big stores, particularly in management roles, which in big stores like Regent Street, are poorly used. Employees don't feel valued or respected by the company, and feel like just another face that has been roped in because they know how to put on a smile.

Pros

Good colleagues, supportive team environment, strong engineering culture, and good opportunities to learn and grow technically.

Cons

A fast-paced work environment can sometimes create high pressure, priorities may shift frequently, and work-life balance can be challenging during peak project cycles.

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
