              Pros

              Great benefits for full time Specialists, you can gain a vast amount of experience while working here. Very diverse work environment and most of the employees are friendly.

              Cons

              Work/ life balance needs drastic improvement. The benefits for part time Specialists can be way better especially for this company that can actually afford it. Not all the managers have good development skills which can make it hard for you to move up in the company.

                People that work at Apple are amazing. Great Benefits for all types of employees. Fast paced environment year round no matter what location you are in.

                Cons

                Hard to move up in the company since there are so many great people that you are going up against. Not many stores so it's hard to find open positions.

                    Pros

                    Apple has interesting roles in their stores, and are fulfilling and interesting for the 1st few months, but after 6 months or more, if you want to grow, it becomes hard and difficult to move around. unless you have a good connection with your manager, things can become a bit steal! some good perks in the job, pay is ok, but certainly could be better. and there should be a better pathway for the who want to move forward and develop career.

                    Cons

                    Hard to move forward and develop your career unless you are good buddies with management.

                        Leadership was good, The salary and hours were more than fair. The company values were okay. I would recommend this job to someone else.

                        Cons

                        The training took way to long. It is very hard to move up and the work life balance isn't great. It can be hard to be in a retail setting all day.
