Great company at the highest level, lots of politics at the bottom
Pros: Great opportunity to advance your career very quickly if you know how to play the right politics.   Competent senior level management (Steve Jobs does deserve the best CEO award), very disciplined, focused and well managed company.
Cons: Very fast paced work environment, beware of backstabbing, very long work hours.  Being a good engineer does not necessarily get you recognition, knowing how to play politics and make yourself look good relative to your peers is most important.  Too secretive, sometimes it's hard to get the whole picture for a project you're working on.
