Pros

Apple Inc has amazing products, and is commitment to innovation unlike most companies. Cash flow to employees is fairly limited and based on what I know, no one will think themselves paid well until they make the jump into director level and beyond. However, there's amazing equity appreciation available in a company that carries such a high market valuation. People there are very smart and generally motivated. The "supporting" roles around the products are also motivated, but at times they may not be as committed as your team needs them to be. Ultimately, there's a poor work and life balance at Apple.

Cons

Apple has a poor work/life balance. And the promotion schedule is generally too slow, as is the pace of salary increases.

Pros

Apple has a unique work environment that both encourages and requires independence and the ability to be versatile. Aside from working on the newest and greatest consumer products, Apple's fast pace enables one to learn and gain much more experience quickly than one would at other companies where work is slower. For those who like to travel, Apple can be a great experience leading to opportunities and luxuries that one would typically not be able to enjoy themselves.

Cons

For those who don't want to travel, Apple is not the company for them in an ops position. Travel is required and very frequent in order to be on top of issues that are pertinent to ones position. A lack of structure is an obvious flaw which affects the team's ability to stay organized and to keep the lines of communication open.
