Pros

Apple is unquestionably a cool company and working for it definitely feels different (and better) than other retail gigs I've had. Benefits are great and you really do become better at what you do the longer you're there and in a meaningful way. Things can get hectic, but all in all, it's more fun than other retail without a doubt.

Cons

The usual retail blahs. Salary is not as high as it should be for genuinely skilled and knowledgeable employees. Customers occasionally make you want to pull your hair out, so it's not for people with a lack of patience.

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
