Pros: Apple is a company that continuously pushes the envelope. It is a lot of fun to work for a company that produces such innovative products. I have worked on many development projects and get to see my products used by many millions of people. It is really wonderful to be out walking around and see something that you've built in people's hands. The CEO is a very charismatic leader and is able to whip crowds into a frenzy. Our product releases have been compared to Hollywood premieres! I've been at events where I've been able to meet stars that I would never normally see. I get to work with some of the nicest, most creative people on earth.

Cons: Work-life balance is non-existent. You must give your all for the company. Many people end up divorced when working at Apple. Want a vacation? Sorry, not now. Not ever. Apple thinks of employees as "disposable". They burn people out and discard their empty shells.

Pros: Apple is a very collaborative environment, which is something I love in a workplace. People are constantly exchanging ideas, asking questions when they pass each other in the halls, etc. Compared to another well-known tech company I worked at, where nearly all communication was done via email and you could go an entire day without saying a word to anyone, this is heaven.

Cons: Sometimes you can end up working long hours, and it can be difficult to move up from within the company.

Pros: One of the most innovative companies I have ever been with and by far my favorite company on earth. I enjoyed working every day with this amazing company!

Cons: With all the talent around, I found it very hard to be original.
