      Fantastic place to work.

      Pros

      The people with whom I work are incredibly dedicated, competent, and feel a tremendous ownership and pride in the work that they do. There's an intense desire to do good work and to do work that our customers will love. In addition, the fact that the work that we do at Apple is seen and used (and hopefully, loved) by so many people is an immense source of satisfaction.

      Cons

      The hours are long, the salaries are not fantastic, and the benefits (health, 401k) are fairly average. I wouldn't rate these as necessarily downsides, but just areas where Apple doesn't shine.

      AppleCare can be rewarding, but little room for advancement

      Pros

      The people in AppleCare are generally very friendly and supportive. Management usually does a good job in letting you balance your work and social life. They will usually help you find positions outside of AppleCare, should you want to leave, but still retain employment at APpple in some way. AppleCare really can be a fun and rewarding place to work, but be prepared to be stuck in practically the same job forever. There are basically two levels: managers and everyone else. If you don't want to be a manager, you will find almost no opportunity for job growth at all.

      AppleCare can be a fun and rewarding place to work, but be prepared to be stuck in practically the same job forever. There are basically two levels: managers and everyone else. If you don't want to be a manager, you will find almost no opportunity for job growth at all. The large amount of cash Apple has accumulated over the last few years has not really been redistributed to the employees. In AppleCare, if you are an exceptional performer, the biggest raise you can expect is only about 5 or 6 percent. Though, they tend not to lay people off, which could be considered a nice trade off.

      Fast-paced, fun, exciting, and always upbeat!

      Pros

      Working in the Apple Retail stores is very fun and exciting. My management emphasized greatly in teamwork and getting the job done together. It honestly felt like a big family. It was a very relaxed, fast-paced environment. We'd all help each other if we saw a teammate falling behind in some way. The management team was always fun and positive. Every morning they'd start off by acknowledging the top sellers of the previous day. There would even be occasions when we'd have fun sales contests. Overall, Apple is really a great company to work. If you love technology and everything Apple, or just beautiful designed products, this company is so worth working for.

      Cons

      I guess the only downsides of working in the stores would be not having any form of commission or bonuses. It would be nice getting some extra cash, especially after a long day of bringing in thousands of dollars and sometimes having to put up with some very irritable customers. Another thing would have to be the constant reminder to upsell memberships. Sometimes, you know when your customer doesn't need or want it. It's not too bad with the managers, but just the fact that something as small as getting your customer to sign in for a "Personal Shopping" appointment to get points for corporate can be a little irritating.
