Pros

The best reason to work for AAPL is the stock, the street cred after the fact, the discounts and occasional free iPod/iPhone, and meeting customers who love the product. Benefits if you survive the bureaucratic gauntlet to FT

Cons

Choke hold on company transparency. Conflicting must-do requirements from managers who have less technical knowledge than they advertise. Pay is retail, not tech company. Reality distortion field requires brain bleach Kool-Aid Working at Apple destroyed my love for it as a company. Misrepresenting company policies to customers. Essentially, AAPL puts as much effort into pretending it is a flawless company as it should into being honest and forward to customers.

Pros

The best reason to work for Apple is to abuse the discount. 25% off retail is price impressive. Thats 700 dollars off the 2499 macbook pro model. This really helped me throughout school only having to work for retail part time. The other great reason is debit card for caltrain, bus, and bart. Apple gives you 100 dollars in the form of a credit card that you can use to commute, or joyride to the city on your days off.

Cons

Growth is hard. If you're gonna go into this job in retail, expect it to be temporary. You can't really move up in the company quickly. It's contradicting on how they work. If you're the best at your job, they try to keep you there to help store numbers. Yet if you're bad at your job, they say you need to improve to get the other positions available. Don't assume working for apple retail now gives you an advantage to get into apple corporate. It no longer works like that. Retail doesn't mean crap.
