Glass Ceiling
Pros: The people, you'll meet people here that you can be great friends with for the rest of your life or in the very least interesting people that you will never forget.
Great benefits for medical/dental, even part-timers are eligible.
Cons: Don't be fooled by the 'Everything is awesome' vibe the managers try to put on, office politics are very real in every store and even though you will get along with most of your coworkers, you are competing with them if you want to advance anywhere.
Demands from head office feel very out of touch with what is actually happening in stores.
Managers get moved/removed often due to performance, politics, etc. so get what you can from a manager that you connect with because you never know how long it will last.
In 8 years of working at Apple, I've only heard of 2 people moving to corporate and both were due to connections to district management; if that was your plan to get into corporate I would highly reconsider that path.
