Pros

no travel required apple pays $50/month for utilities good benefits/compensation all team members are really nice to chat with

Cons

no face time with upper management no one knows who you are no way to get your name out no mobility never meet anyone that you work with. you are stuck at home for the whole time. this could be seen as a pro for some folks who have prior commitments or would rather stay home than meet new people or teammates. stuck doing tech support for a good 5 years before management acknowledges you

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
