Life of an Apple Employee in 2019
Pros: Amazing people to work with
Great pay for the type of job
Benefits are great
Opportunities to promote are available
1 hour lunch, 2 15 min breaks
Cons: Scheduled for every thing that you do.  You have to take breaks on time otherwise, you hear it from the management about how other people are late to their breaks

Its not about the customer as they say it is.  you have to shove all services and things available for customers; within a 15 min time, and then have to worry about getting a good survey.
Corporate Apple is completely disconnected with the retail side.  They have no idea what's going on within store level and make policies for the retail side.  Most upper management has never worked in a retail role

Micromanaged for everything you do. 
Angry and rude customers non stop
What work life balance?
Scheduling is random, no available set schedule.
Closing sucks, only a team of 5-10 people are responsible for stocking all product, wiping all products, cleaning all customer focusing areas, cleaning break rooms 
Hard to get shifts swapped from other employees
Hard to get time to learn and research products 
"Downloads" are almost a waste of time-- Cult like--  Every shift, every day
