Pros

The best part of the job is that I interact with so many smart and capable people. Most of them share my passion and enthusiasm for what we do here. The work is challenging, I'm learning something new every day, and I have great career growth prospects. It's the best place that I've ever worked, although it's not without its downsides.

Cons

My work/life balance could be considerably better. Since I'm working on their website, and we have fairly frequent releases, I feel like I'm constantly putting out fires. As a result, the job can be very stressful. Some of the people that I work with are up-tight, so this also adds to the stress.

Pros

Working at Apple means you get to work on some of the coolest products. These are products that people really love. The structure is quite flat, so you will routinely find yourself in a meeting with engineers, middle manager, and VPs. It's also nice to work on a product, where the BOM cost is not always the main focus. Apple will spend money on whatever equipment or resources are required to get the job done.

Cons

Sweatshop through and through. They like to keep teams very lean, the hiring process is so gruelling that few make it through. This makes for very long days, usually 12-14 hours. Very confrontational interactions between teams, by this I mean the normally collaborative atmosphere between teams is more like in-laws fighting at Christmas. Traveling to China 6+ times a year.
