Great place to work and play

Pros

challenge and sense of accomplishment. Is it a joy to get up and work everyday because you know that everything you make will be used and adored by the consumer. The atmosphere at campus is also awesome with a great court yard and cafeteria. The location, at the heart of silicon valley is also a great bonus as it allows year round outdoors activities. Coworkers are generally very smart and hardworking but of course there are always lazy bums at both the engineering and mid level engineering managers. The greatest thing I think is to be able to wakeup and go to a wonderful place to work and be appreciated.

Cons

work hours can last too long

Pros

The big positive for me is that I really do enjoy my job at Apple because it is always innovative and changes regularly.

Cons

I suppose that a con would be that there is a very hard balance here between work and home life.
