Great Place to Start!
Pros: - The facilities are world class
- You will get to work on nice Mac computers all day
- The training is thorough and the trainers are fun, smart and caring
-  Opportunities to touch the lives of people all over the United States by helping them recover important data such as photos, videos and emails.
- Freedom to be who you are
- You will never have to use MS Outlook etc.
Cons: - As a "contractor" through a staffing company, my pay was very low. It wasn't even over 30K
- Many of the people you will have to consult/escalate/transfer to within the company can be quite rude although you will also find some truly great individuals.
- You get the sense that management feels like they're herding cats which often offended me and eventually led to me seeking employment elsewhere.
- As I had been pursuing my education in networking, I didn't feel like there was any opportunity whatsoever for me to move into any other IT or networking role within Apple outside of phone support.
- Lots of required overtime
