It's just a corporation.
Pros: Smart co-workers, good products, pretty campus.
Cons: Change the world?   If you mean feeding starving kids in Africa, that's Bill Gates.    Apple makes slick products for yuppies.   In exchange, you get huge work hours, medium pay and benefits.   This is okay though; it's not so different essentially from other companies.    Worst problem is some of mid-level management.    I've never seen the level of pettiness and in a couple of cases, viciousness toward employees anywhere else that I've seen here.   It's not throughout the whole company, but there are a couple of sectors that are really bad, and they have lost people because of it.    You have to be very careful about the mid to senior level management you'll work for.
