Pros

- Great Brand and lot of learning opportunities - Unique start up culture with high standards and high expectations - great stress on innovation

Cons

- Quantity of work is very high (relatively) and on an average (my guess in two years experience ) people work 60 hrs a week. - No standard policy for bonus and stock options in annual appraisals and very subjective to manager perception.

Pros

Lots of free hardware to use while working there. and employee discounts. People are very fun and young, and full of energy

Cons

infinite amount of work to do. Many emails arrive after 10pm, people still finishing their work Hard to find a good life balance. you want to support the team, so all in. Crowded at the top, you really need to stand out and work hard to even be considered for a promotion.

Pros

Fantastic technical challenges, brilliant people, complex and important problems to be solved. The benefits are great, of course, and the prestige both during the time you work there and even afterwards on your resume are significant benefits. If you like serious intellectual challenges, and the opportunity to do something that makes a difference in the world, this is the place for you. I think the compensation was very fair compared to other companies, and those people who really are rock stars really get very well compensated.

Cons

The culture (in engineering) is a tough one, hard on people who aren't at the top of their game. I think that Apple actually is a pretty high integrity place in general, but in my experience there certainly used to be a very strong political nature. This is always true in any organization with a lot of people, of course, but at Apple there was a certain sloppiness about allowing bad managers without a strategic plan to continue to survive and do damage far too long just because they were good at making their bosses feel good. Maybe this was just the case in the group where I worked. Maybe this has changed since Tim Cook has taken over.
