The store I worked at was terrible, but is not a reflection on Apple Retail as a whole.
Pros: Excellent benefits system.
The kit you use and internal systems are very slick.
Cons: Awful for work/life balance. You can start at 7:30am, and finish at 8-9pm in a 9 hour shift somewhere in that. Those days are complete write-offs.
Generally terrible management - a bunch of ex-clothes retail and hospitality people. Prejudice, favouritism, unfair treatment, open bias, leaders that stand around brazenly doing nothing on their phones, poor recognition and development of skilled people that care, bullying - basically all the things you can think of that are the last you would want leadership to be.
A toxic environment breeding negativity and apathy toward the job.
