Pros

The company culture as a whole is great. The culture of the products and customer service seem to trickle down from the general culture of the company. Company discounts are excellent.

Cons

It really depends on your VP and boss. It feels like a butterfly effect with the higher ups flapping their wings and causing tsunami's for the poor engineers at the bottom. Schedule and priorities don't stop changing with endless pressure to work late nights and weekends. The culture of secrecy also makes it hard as you're expected to just do things with no explanation. It's only exacerbated by the inability to hire more people. Apple is the best place to end your engineer career, you will either die in the company or move to a completely different field from the burn out.

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
