Pros

Apple has a very solid culture of respecting employees and offering challenging work that will change the world. The important thing to know is that you should be ready to make opportunities for yourself and not sit around waiting for someone else to hand you a dream assignment. You need to network with other teams and be aware of what's coming. With that information, get yourself in front of the hiring manager and let them know you're interested. This is how you have a great experience at Apple. Take charge of your future.

Cons

Not so much a con as advice that applies anywhere. Apple has a range of managers with varying levels of skill at managing. Ask good questions of any prospective manager to find out how they manage in certain situations. How do they recognize above and beyond contributions from their directs? How do they manage conflicts inside the group and between groups? What professional development programs do they have in place for their directs? There are many other questions and I encourage you to search online for some more. Your manager is the single largest influence on whether you enjoy your job. Take the time to get to know her/him in the interview process.

Pros

Apple used to be a good company to work for and there was plenty of chances to move up in the company. That has now changed.

Cons

Over the past year it seems they have moved the upper management from China to the US. They have have stopped trying to staff for the amount of business they were receiving and instead required everyone to work overtime far more than normal with complete disregard for their employees. If you like paid slavery then this is the job for you.

Pros

Apple gives you a good support system. I worked at the retail level, and it was leaps and bounds cooler than most retail jobs you'll find.

Cons

The culture is more like a cult-ure...the place is a cult. If you are a level-headed human being, you may lose your sh*t working with some of these folks.
