Pros

Job security, Medical, Dental, Small Gym reimbursement, Vision plan.

Cons

Low salary, low job progression to Apple inc from Retail. Huge amount of nepotism and to be honest. Business 'leaders' have a background in sales, but lack foresight with wider topics such as how to be agile and proactive with reaching out to customers. No clear understanding around Events implementation and startups. Unable to utilize internal staff to host events and rather use budget for Campus 2. Retail Business has so much potential, it's a shame where we are going. I have to work under crazy conditions whilst being asked to perform 5 x better than you did, with no compensation or benefit.

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
