Pros
Apple’s philosophy, concern for the environment, inclusivity and products are to be admired. Benefits are good, and they are a class act.
Cons
What is unfortunate in the Apple, PIE group is how many truly bad managers there are and how rampant cronyism is within the company. HR issues are handled poorly if they get any response at all. As a result, you have to put up with bullying, favoritism and as a PM, you absolutely have no voice; your concerns carry zero weight. People get promoted because of who brought them into the company (there is a large Yahoo contingent currently within the PIE PMO). There are PMs who barely show up to work or who barely do competent work and they will die at Apple and continue to earn favorable reviews. If you’re not in the clique that matters, you’ll be shown the door. If you talk to your manager’s manager, you’re screwed, because those two people are friends.
