Pros

Better pay than any retail place that I have worked for or even heard of, looks great on the resume, great discounts to apple products and various third party products as well, Finally, a hidden perk is that the customers that you meet can provide great networking if you talk to them the right way (I help out people from Goldman Sachs, Credit Suisse, GE, NBC, US Government, ETC); I have had the opportunity to pick their brain about their careers, and receive any advice they can give me for the future job market once I graduate school.

Cons

Stores can get very cliquey, depending on which store you are in. Other than that, it's a great part time job that will enhance your professional advancement.

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
