Apple Retail
Pros: There seems to be a good culture within the company that encourages positive behaviors among peers. They offer pretty good benefits and pay rate that you wouldn't get with most other retail companies. Job is pretty secure as well--once you're hired, it's pretty difficult to lose your job.
Cons: Being retail, hours aren't great and working with customers is like a double-edged sword. Some interactions are draining, while others are extremely rewarding. There is a pretty high turnover rate as well, some times due to employees transferring to other positions within the company, and others leaving for a more permanent job or more regular work schedule. It is rather difficult to move up within one store. They seem to prefer external hires. You'd have a better opportunity transferring to a different location.
