Pros

plenty of training, great benefits, pretty good discounts, and you get to work for Apple. If you want to work in retail, I can't imagine a better place.

Cons

The number one downside is the pay. Even if you are bringing in thousands of dollars worth of computers every day, you get paid the same low pay as the guy standing next to you who doesn't know the difference between processing power and RAM. Also, it takes forever to get promotions, since most of the people who work there are specialists, and they all want a promotion.

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
