Not what I expected.
Pros: People are impressed when they hear you work at Apple. Apple encourages learning, classes are offered to learn new software. They have some really fun events and guest speakers. Cupertino is a pleasant town if you are tired of the crowds and cold weather of San Francisco.
Cons: Work space is very crowded. Everyone in my group works in one open room.
Very political work environment. Some groups burn out employees quickly and have low job retention. 
There is often no notice if you have to stay late.
