Pros

Company itself, health benefits, culture, a carefree corporate environment

Cons

If you're looking to climb up the corporate ladder don't bother with Apple Singapore as there are no career prospects to speak of. Even though this is such a big MNC sadly when the mgmt are Asians running in Asia it's like any normal local companies. They speak of being open to discuss whatever concerns but really you aren't allowed to go against the mgmt's wills. You could be stuck in the same exact position for years with no progress while lazy incompetent people are hired to be your boss. They micro manage you, don't really care what you're thinking and expects you to work like factory robots. Maybe it's just that one such department in Apple Singapore.

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
