Pros

The people at Apple Retail are an amazing, diverse, and talented group of individuals. It's your peers at this company that make the days worth it.

Cons

Very political. People are promoted based on politics and relationships. They are not promoted based on skill or performance. They hire externally and do not give internal candidates a chance to progress up the ladder.

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
