Pros

Apple employees are valued very much by other employers. Next job is always easy. Opportunity to work on latest technology.

Cons

Work resembles that of a start up without enough rewards. Long work hours. Employees are loyal to company, but company does not seem to care about employee retention. In product development groups, employee turn around is high. In iPod group where I worked, on average every month there would be about 40-50 employees leaving the company and approximately same number would join as well.
