Pros

You make great money for working in a Best Buy for Apple. You get the benefit of an Apple corporate. You make almost twice your base pay on commission. Most people make 70,000+

Cons

Your a glorified Best Buy employee except that you work for Apple. You work every weekend and every holiday. Your treated to high attach standards when selling computers. You must sell 35% Mobile Me and 50% iWork and always be hitting your computer sales each week. You are constantly hounded on hitting sales/attaches and your only as good as your last week. There is no upward track in this division of Apple. You basically have 15-25 people going for one associate regional manager positon which doesn't open up for multiple years. Moving up to corporate in Cupertino is difficult since our Managers don't know many people at headquarters. Its basically a dead end job folks. Don't get blinded by the pay its a waste of your time and your life. Also don't think this division is like Apple its not its more like best buy but with apple managers who are a bunch of old used car dealers.

Pros

I was very lucky to work with some amazing co-workers and given the latitude to make choices that really benefited our customers.

Cons

The cons of the job are really what you would expect working with a company like Apple, you are held the incredibly high standards, with almost consistent feedback on your performance.
