      Great Company and Benefits, Challenges at a Satellite Office

      Pros

      Great financial picture, benefits, and other resources. Very rewarding if you believe in the products.

      Cons

      The Austin site exists in distinct vertical silos and it is impossible to jump from one to another. If you are unable to find a satisfactory career path within your own organization, you will eventually have to leave the company. Some groups have significant management assistance and advocacy for individual contributor career growth, but others do not. If you are in the latter, you are in a pigeon hole.

      Don't Do It - Bullies

      At home advisor
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      No pros in this company, even the piddly discounts are not work the abuse and bullying.

      Cons

      Rampant bullying from team leaders and it is known about by HR but they won't do anything about it. Excessive pressure to be perfect. Need to explain why you get a bad review when it was in fact for someone at the retail store stuffing up, they will not remove this, you just have to wear it. No work life balance whatsoever even though they claim you do. Often worked well past finishing time. Expected (forced) to work extra hours when new product or iOS issued and around Christmas.

      Getting too big but is still awesome

      Pros

      Apple has a great atmosphere, some really, really talented people and great culture. They also do some really cool products where it feels great to be part of the process. There is a great collective feeling of everyone striving for the same goal and very little internal competition. Other companies may have bigger salaries, but it's hard to beat them on benefits. If you get into the RSU vesting schedule for a few years, you are certain to think twice before leaving and watching your unvested stocks go up in smoke. Work/life balance can vary, but it's very much up to the employee. However, when I had a death in the family, there was 100% support from my management and I never had to worry about deliverables or taking too much time off. It really felt like they were more concerned about me than my job. Experiences like that makes for loyal employees.

      Cons

      With intense growth there will be hiring and promotional decisions where compromises are made because there simply isn't enough people available. In the balance of quality (which stops shipping) and shipping (which can compromise quality) the company in recent years have slipped more to the shipping side, while under SJ it was securely on the quality side. Something to watch out for.
