Pros

Great for a college student/kid that won't keep the job long.

Cons

I am not paid on time due to inept managers. I'm always told they'll follow up with an "IOU" on the next paycheck. The government has to subsidize my income because Apple does not pay a living wage considering the high costs of living in my state. Because of the low wages the Apple pays, our family has to rely on food stamps. There is no way to obtain a second income because their "shift bidding" is so sporadic. Most opportunities at the company are lateral moves with no pay increase. It's telling when you cannot afford to purchase the products the company you work for produces.

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
