Too much politics

Pros

Great perks, salary, free dinners.

Cons

Arrogance, politics, long work hours, people feel threatened by your smartness so easily that they try to throw you under the bus on every chance they get. People steal your credit all the time

Pros

You will learn to become better at design and attention to detail. Lots of very smart coworkers. Excellent age diversity which brings very different perspectives. Senior leadership is very admirable. Caffe Macs probably serves the best salad in California.

Cons

Long hours. Compensation/benefits are not competitive (despite what they may claim). Some skills may not be transferable. May have to deal with technical debt. Management hires fewer people than needed, which contributes to technical debt issues.

Pros

Apple is a fantastic place to work if you want to be in a fairly closed ecosystem that functions fairly well but also has its own inner turmoil.

Cons

It can be difficult to move between jobs, establish a career path, and learn how to succeed here as an IC.
