Specialist,  Apple Retail
Pros: Great 401K, stock purchase plan, really cool employees. The specialist role is stressful but not difficult. You can leave the job at work. You meet interesting people all day long.
Cons: They say that people are their greatest asset. They pay horribly low and increases are pathetic at best. Specialists often fill in the gaps of other positions in the store for extended periods of time, years without getting the actual position and the the increase that should go along with it. Super high turnover rate. Most come in super stoked that they got hired by this amazing company that makes the best products in the world. They often get fed up and or jaded and wind up leaving. 
This is a great job for a collage student and looks great on a resume.
