Pros

The best reason to work for Apple is the technical training. The salaries are high but lower that the people who worked before our new group came in. There seems to be a turnover about every 18 months and you can be fired for cause. There is no tolerance for being late or not showing up to work without calling in. You will get warning letters but if you are not liked by your management you will have a hard time.

Cons

Your work schedule is all about Apple. Not about you. So If you are use to working and having the weekends off forget that. You may have 2 days in the middle of the week off. In a way that could be helpful if you are running to the doctors office with kids. But if you are single, or just a married couple it can really put a damper on things - especially if you enjoy going to church or enjoy being with friends and family on the week-end. The other thing is the hours. With the crazy schedule and hours changing, it can be a challenge working for this company.

Pros

cool technology High profile company Apple is liked by consumers cool discounts. Being close to the leading edge of popular technology Stores are centrally located Decent healthcare benefits and discounted stock options Chance to help people be creative by providing them with tools to enhance their creativity.

Cons

terrible schedule Managers overpaid, underperform Very busy stores, overwhelming Recognition hard to get. challenging work is not compensated fairly from employee to employee. Large disparities evolve in pay between members of the same team. Lots of corporate rules and metrics you are expected to meet. Security cameras keep close watch on staff, not customers.
