Pros

You know that feeling when you actually loving going to work everyday? If you work for Apple you will feel this constantly. Apple builds a community around its employees, encouraging them to grow themselves and build friendships and close bonds with each other. They want you to grow as a person and as an employee, and everyone you work with is only there to help you succeed in this. They focus on the customer experience instead of selling which makes your job easy when all you have to do is get to know your customers on a more personal level instead of shoving products at them. They have good benefits for part time and full time employees, along with great discounts. Over all, my experience with Apple has only been amazing from the day I️ got called in for an interview. I️ couldn’t be happier with my job and I’m so glad I️ decided to work here and that they decided to hire me.

Cons

You will probably start part time. Pay and benefits help to supplement part time hours, and moving up to full time isn’t that difficult.

Pros

Amazing company with amazing people. If you work hard and do your job, you will move up. This company is all about career development if you do your part and work hard. The work is extremely satisfying and I love what I do. Love the comfort of working in my home. They also send lots of t-shirts, mugs, totes, and other cool stuff that truly make you feel appreciated. Best place to work.

Cons

None, other than have a more strict policy on hiring. Weed out the clowns who don't have a strong work ethic and are just there to try and get out of working.

Pros

-ability to work on cool consumer electronics -international travel -stock / RSU package is a reasonable income supplement -pride associated with working for the most admired company in the world

Cons

-management by chaos - resulting in a lot of unnecessary churn and work -no respect for work life balance -management expects you to be on call all the time -everyone is so busy, training and development is an afterthought -very top down structure where individuals hold little authority and are often micromanaged -management considers "company pride" as a perk, and skimps on other benefits -financial compensation is not competitive -no clear career development opportunities -very few processes, so the culture is people-driven, and therefore, very political -management is maniacally focused on the bottom line, so certain detrimental behavior is not discouraged. This is often manifested in needless politicking, bad management styles, heavy-handed vendor relations, and turf wars. In short, jerks are tolerated. -the company is very siloed, limiting mobility (in my case, my VP would not allow me to consider jobs outside his umbrella) -different organizations have different incentives, often resulting in poor coordination at critical hand-off points
