Pros

When working at Apple, you get to meet a lot of different people, customers and co-workers. If you are a Specialist, there are some problem solving skills needed. What's great is that you get to really dive deep into the products and get opportunities to learn more about the software and hardware which helps you grow.

Cons

You will probably disappoint at least one or two people a day. And trust me, those disappointed people will blame you for their phone or computer not working. Management can be a toss up from store to store. Product launch dates are ridiculous and long and it will carry over to the next week or two. Also holidays bring just as much traffic, so be ready for non-stop days.

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
