Pros
Super-sharp co-workers, prestige of the brand, nice campus and employee services, OK pay, lots of development opportunities for full-time employees.
Cons
I've worked as a contractor at a few Silicon Valley companies and was treated pretty much the same as staff employees. At Apple, that's not the case. They seem to make a point of differentiating between contract and FTE employees (badge only works certain hours, contractors excluded from events and small perks.) It feels petty when you can't attend team events that affect your work because you're on contract.
