Pros

Other than the complete lack of a life in the balance, working for Apple is great. The pay, bonuses, benefits, and perks are awesome. The opportunities for career growth and personal growth are near infinite. You will be pushed to and beyond your limits regularly, you will grow as a person and in your skills, and you will do some very cool things at Apple-you just will also not have have the time to sleep, eat, do your laundry, take care of your cat/dog, see your family, or have a social life out side of the weekends.

Cons

There is no time for life at at Apple, only work. If you enjoy what you do, and don't have obligations or passion outside of your work, this is the place for you. I do like what I do, but I have always thought that a person should work to live, not live to work.

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
