Pros

The benefits are great and the brand value it adds to the resume is fantastic.

Cons

I worked in the Pac Ops L&D department for a significant period, but unfortunately, my experience was very bad. The SG PAC Operations team is plagued by poor leadership and mismanagement. There were no real growth opportunities, and my manager, she was relentless and highly controlling, often micromanaging and focusing on trivial matters. Even something as simple as a newsletter required five conference calls, only for her to take over and complete it herself in the end. It left me feeling like my efforts and time were constantly devalued. The work environment is also highly political, it's like they are at war with Apple CA and Apple Europe, constantly trying to not work as a team. If you are in the “right” team, you may have a good experience, but if not, it becomes extremely difficult and very demotivating. HR is almost non existant it provides no meaningful support, as they tend to side only with managers. Several employees, including myself, left because of our manager’s behavior, but no one took any action or even acknowledged the issues.

Pros

salary, work environment and benefits

Cons

Micromanagement The targets set are often unrealistic, making it difficult to achieve success and maintain morale and once you hit the target, they will set another unrealistic target. The support area is too broad, spreading resources and attention thin. Employees are often expected to handle tasks outside their job description, leading to confusion and burnout.

Pros

-The salary is livable (at least where I worked) -You get great discounts on Apple products and from partners -You get great training opportunities -You get benefits if full-time (we had benefits for part-time as well where I worked)

Cons

-Promotions seem to be catered to whom is most popular and cushy with the managers rather than who is most competent -The schedule often has these terrible shifts I call Cl-open shifts where you leave at 9 or 10pm and come back at 8am or 9am depending on day. With commute this can mean you have no time to get even 8 hours of sleep -They have these quarterly meetings everybody has to attend, even if it is your day off. If you do not go, then the management gets upset with for not being a 'team-player' -They are obsessed with metrics as the managers have their bonuses tied to the metrics. Even if it isn't your fault and your customer gave you bad review just because you couldn't repair the device, you will get penalized. -They do not fly you down to Cupertino anymore, they cheaped out and do online training instead. -Unless management approves, you cannot even do school part-time as they cannot guarantee you an evening off every week.
