Overall rating: 4/5
Employment status: current

great co-workers, slightly frustrating management
Pros: Apple is all about people, and in retail it's no different.  The people who work with you day in and day out become your closest friends and allies.  You hang out at work, outside of work, and everything in between.  Pay is really great for retail.  Culture is casual and friendly.
Cons: Management can be incredibly frustrating.  TONS OF HOURS anytime there is a launch or near the holidays.  Can be incredibly difficult to get full-time employment.  Politics and favoritism amongst the managers can greatly influence promotions to lead positions.  Schedules can be incredibly frustrating.
