Experience level: Senior

Working at Apple was great -- and it still is, for the right people
Pros: exciting products (it's never dull)
highly regarded (your friends will be envious)
good salary and benefits and perks
Cons: work/life balance is nonexistent -- plan not to take your vacation days as anything but a cash payout
never admit to a conflict or concern about work/life balance -- just work it out the best you can and hang on, or leave, whichever makes the best sense to your situation
