Pros

Apple is a big family. Almost everyone who works here does so because of their love for the company, the products we produce and the technology. Everyone has a stake in the company's success and it's visible in the way business is done.

Cons

Apple is run on a very tight budget, so there are a lot of things that Apple doesn't do that other employer might. For instance, charitable contribution matching no longer exists. There are a few areas like that that would really improve the overall atmosphere.

Sometimes long hours are expected but when you are doing what you love I don't find it to be an issue.

Pros

Apple employees are very passionate about the company they work for. They love Apple and the products Apple makes, so every day was fun to work because you were around people who really loved their employer. Apple offers incredible benefits and amazing training so employees know what they are selling and enjoy selling it. Communication was great between management and employees. Managers truly cared about the employees as people and the employees treated each other like family. The atmosphere on the floor of a store and also behind the scenes was fantastic and fun. Apple is leading the technology drive in so many ways and it's fun to be a big part of introducing their genius to others.

Cons

Pay was not great, and raises were small and spread far apart. If you work at a small retail store, opportunities for advancement are not great. Slow stores are not very exciting to work in. Unless you want to be a manager, there are not great opportunities for large pay or salary, that I'm aware off, minus going to work at corporate, which was pretty much everyone's dream. Retail seemed like a small offshoot of corporate and a gateway for many of my fellow employees. Focus on sales and metrics was not very fun for workers who were more technically or creatively gifted, but unfortunately the metrics drove too much of the job.
