      Apple can be exciting to work for, but it's a rough ride. Not for the faint-hearted.

      Pros

      Everyone knows where you work and they think it's awesome. You get to play with all of the latest software and toys, and work for one of the most profitable companies in the world.

      Cons

      Apple is very secretive. It can be difficult to know what's going on ahead of time, and then all of the sudden, you need to shift and adapt. Schedules are very rough and change a lot. Releases, and crunch-time seems omni-present. It can be overwhelming. If your strengths do not include constant adaptation to continuous change, then Apple will frustrate you.

      Great Place to work but not enough for me.

      Pros

      Great co-workers, that make it worth coming in to work. Great salary compared to similar retailers. Every day is different.

      Cons

      Rude and loud customers who get what hey want for being rude and loud. working retail hours, weekends and evenings. Only know your work schedule, one week in advance. Management almost recognizes when you do a good job but is very quick to give you negative feedback when they feel you're not. Almost no room for advancement.

      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.
