If you work hard you will not be rewarded
Pros: Apple was a great company to work for. Benefits are amazing (401k match, healthcare, educational reimbursement, stock discounts, gym discounts, transit reimbursement) You really learn so much from your co-workers because they are just so creative and resourceful - they truly do become your family.
Cons: Very political when it comes to moving anywhere within the company. Consistency with policy does not exist when it comes to following through with proper protocol. Because management does not talk well to one another in terms of their people, consistency with policy is actually pretty much non-existent. They'll do one thing for someone and another for someone else. Working within HR you can see how this can be bothersome. The pay is also something to talk about. Looking at how much the company makes on a daily basis (and also how much management makes) you'd think that the employees would get paid at least a decent amount. Unfortunately this is not the case. You almost feel taken advantage of after a while because of everything that you do. It's quite upsetting, especially when you expect more from such a great company.
