      Pros

      * work with some of the smartest people * benefits are on point, including business class travel to Asia * chance to work with talented engineers on futuristic tech

      Cons

      * work-life balance is elusive * frequent travel to Apple's contract manufacturers/sweatshops in remote parts of Asia * high-stress political environment * high rates of attrition * because of Ops is fast-paced and short-term objectives need to be met, personal development goals are often sidelined

      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
