Pros

Great products, as sales person its wonderful to be able to represent the best, campus life is good (great food, beautiful surroundings, and the occasional party/fun activity at the main lawn). Compensation and overall benefits (matching 401K, stock purchase when the stock is rising :-)) are definitely competitive. Smart people and overall the company feels 'well run', they deliver great products somewhat on-time, they market these products well. Management seems relatively flat and so you can know/meet the top execs and that is cool.

Cons

There is this overall 'secrecy' feel that is weird - and I think it permeates many many aspects of the company from engineering to marketing to sales - so you are often wondering if you are supposed to know something and not talk about it, etc. and it makes for a sometimes uncomfortable environment. Not all mangers are great (some are egomaniacs intent on self-promotion and 'kissing up' and/or micromangers) and if one of them is your boss, bummer for you. Work hours can be significant (its not an HP 9-5 type of place to work).

Pros

The amount of knowledge and learning experience. Overall good place to work and is very fun and past paced. Lots of awesome products available, and one large company to grow with.

Cons

The scheduling is the worst, there is so many people working that its hard to get anything set and dated. I worked part time trying to just work one certain time a week or time and couldn't ever. I would love to have a set schedule but there is so many people working there. Other than that, the pay is great but the wait time for going full time is a little long.

Pros

Fun environment, great people. It's nice to have an opportunity to handle some of the most innovative technology in the industry. Most of the customers are really kind and have a legitimate interest in the products. Apple provides fantastic training and really seems to care about their customers.

Cons

Management frequently passes up talented employees for promotion. Store is frequently very, very busy so it's definitely not for the faint of heart. You need to be able to adapt in a quick-paced environment. Plus, customers who have problems are sometimes upset - it helps to have good people skills when dealing with customers who have problems.
