Pros: Apple prides it itself on diversity, inclusion, development and customer driven sales, all of which can make a great work environment. The perks and benefits of working here are great: discounts on products, great healthcare, good coworkers and interesting interactions with customers, etc.
Cons: The biggest opportunity that Apple has to retain talented folks is to get competitive with its pay scale at retail stores. Across the board, people doing “desk” jobs, supervisory jobs and positions with accountability above and beyond device sales are underpaid. In our market, an equivalent position for my role would be $10-15k more, plus commission (Apple doesn’t believe in commission). Below average salary combined with long hours, weekend work and stressful retail life equal high employee turnover and dissatisfaction that is shared by a number of employees.
