Experience level: Junior

As a specialist in the retail store, learned a lot about Apple Computers and met some great people.
Pros: Great technology. Fun working environment. Great way to see the inside thinking behind one of the greatest retail stores. Meet amazing people (both customers and co-workers). Management is fair, and always willing to work with you. If the store is busy, management will often allow you to extend your shift if you're willing to do so.
Cons: I never really felt management was encouraging towards employees regarding promotions. Often, it is difficult to find time to use the online training tools or shadow another position because the stores are always so busy, managers can't afford to have you off of the sales floor. You will almost always work all major holidays and product release days.
