Pros

Some good health insurance benefits.

Cons

Company works the employees like machines. Basically have to be on call 24/7. Honestly can’t tell the difference between apple and Amazon anymore. Yes we get paid a lot, but we are getting paid for 40 hours a week but can rarely work for just 40 hours a week. I lost so much hair from all the stress and late nights. People are basically slaves of the products. Honestly, avoid if possible. Take a job somewhere else with less pay but great WLB.

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
