Pros

Work with smart, driven and creative people everyday. Excellent pay and stock. Great place for someone who knows how to navigate a highly complex organization and constantly innovate ideas and think progressively.

Cons

Approach to talent is old fashion and requirements for onsite vs. remote workers means loosing good talent on a regular basis. The company is a bit self important. Work life balance is not great. You are expected to be on 24 / 7.

Pros

As other reviews say, the culture and energy are fantastic, even from a work-from-home perspective. They are great at making you feel included and part of a team while working remotely, great collaboration tools. Amazing benefits, extremely inclusive, lots of employee diversity, pretty much every employee you deal with is on point. Apple took great care of me and made me feel truly valued and appreciated. I would definitely work there again and highly recommend.

Cons

They do have high expectations, but it's nothing ridiculous. There is a bit of kool-aid drinking, but frankly, the kool-aid is delicious...I didn't mind it one bit.

Lower your expectations at least in AIS (Apple Information Security)

Pros

* Work life balance is pretty good. * Compensation good but not the best at least in the bay area. * You have Apple on your resume

Cons

* Politics. * Their secrecy culture. You can't talk to anyone about anything even within the company you may not know who has the appropriate disclosure. No public speaking or open source development opportunities because of this culture. * Despite being the wealthiest company in the world, they are very cheap and penny pinch everything. * Misguided focus and direction on unimportant, noncritical initiatives by management in AIS * Career path and progression within AIS is severely lacking.
