Pros

It's Apple, with AppleCare growing at breakneck pace to support customers. Decent discounts on Mac and iOS devices.

Cons

It's Apple; everybody and their brothers uncle's dog wants to work there, as a result there is tons of competition. I recall them stating that only 2% of applicants get a job there. As a result, don't expect top notch pay or benefits. AppleCare is open 365 days a year, so don't expect to be able to spend the holidays with family and friends. They don't give support advisors who support the iPhone an iPhone, as a result many advisors supporting the iPhone have never used one. At best you may be provided an iPod Touch, but that's a total different user experience. It wasn't until I bought my own iPhone that I was able to competently support it.

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
