Pros

Great products, great services, opportunity to solve problems and give someone the wow!

Cons

Lots of change in senior management and lack of training direction and lead is setting up a bad inner culture. Training is lacking. Even with people from corporate side helping train, information was contradictory. Lack of training, leads to lack of proper behaviors, that leads to repeated bad practices, which leads to resistance when proper behaviors are introduced and held as the minimum standard. You see where this is going… kicking the problem down the road just collects a lot of trash that someone is going to have clean up or dispose of. Though not intentional, that is what senior management is doing.

Pros

Met a lot of great coworkers

Cons

They expect you to provide the same customer service as Chick-Fil-A, but there is realistically no way. This makes it a stressful environment

Pros

Great coworkers, learn a lot about Apple products.

Cons

Disconnected upper management, extremely toxic customer environment, pay is decent but not enough for what they expect of you. Obvious lack of care of work/life balance. Also be warned because I saw it more than you might think, they will fire employees with no warning and often without even any reason.

Pros

I liked the people I worked with and seeing/learning about apple products. I was the only girl in my store at my time there which I didn’t mind.

Cons

Upper management was terrible (not the store manger). When they decided to close our store they didn’t even tell our store manger until one week before... !! They also paid me $11.00 an hour! That is absolutely nothing in Seattle, WA. I don’t think they really care for the employees at all. There is an impossible commission you can reach if you sell a lot but it was hard to reach it and not much money. Also you sometimes have to deal with awful customers who are very frustrated over there computer troubles. This one guy came up to me to help him with his computer, he got very rude when I tried referring him to the help desk and lied to my manger saying I wasted his time so he could get free service I think. I never had customers as rude as that in any other store I worked in.
