Demanding, supportive career growth at Apple
Pros: At Apple, you control your career.  Nothing is off limits, and at the same time simply doing your job is enough if you need to focus elsewhere, such as family or education.  Apple pays for most schooling and supports employees becoming more educated.  I've never worked in a more supportive work environment.
Cons: There is always more work than time - it seems that Apple tends to run lean rather than risk having more employees than it needs.  Because of that, demands can be higher, stress can be higher, and the average pay seems worth less compared to other market positions.
