Great company.  Awesome Products.  An ethos I can get behind...
Pros: Apple's commitment to customer service is what I love most about the job.  I feel empowered to do whatever it takes to make it right for the customer and I get zero push back from management when I do so.  Perhaps this is unique to our management team, but it is what I truly love about the job.
Cons: Moving up to corporate from retail is utterly opaque.  There is no clearly defined path for those who wish to make that leap.  I find that most frustrating because I know an awful lot of people like myself who can offer substantial benefit to corporate based upon our retail experience.

Another gripe is the compensation.  Based upon the revenue I generate I am receiving less that 1% in salary.  I find that manifestly unfair especially based upon the salaries and benefits that corporate employees receive.
