Pros
I'm proud to work at Apple. It has very high visibility, wonderful products, great and hard working employees, and a friendly atmosphere.
Cons
The hours are simply too long. There is no work-life balance. You will be expected to be on call at all times of the day, including weekends. Management forgets deadlines, creating a trickle down effect and time-crunch. Overall strategic planning is not a strength. Consider it this way: take your salary and divide by half (since you will be working essentially 2 jobs during an 80-100 hour week).
