Pros: There is much to like and enjoy about working at Apple. The product you work on will likely have high visibility and be used by millions of consumers. While the company is huge, the individual teams tend to be rather small, which helps with rapid iteration and development cycles. The environment is fast-paced. As many of the products are new and cutting-edge, there are plenty of challenges to face, and most individual contributors tend to take on a lot of responsibility.

Cons: With many large companies, Apple tends to be quite top-down in its organization. There is little feedback that goes upstream. Add to that the secretive nature of the company, and there tends to sometimes be a lack of communication. This can, at times, stifle collaboration between teams.

Pros: Co-workers, Technologies, Culture, Mobility, Management

Cons: No work from home, rigid.

Pros: Genuinely happy here. It’s a big company, so you are always gonna have to fight corporate morass. That’s life. But it seems they genuinely care about making good work and helping people perform.

Cons: It’s a big company… prepare to not be treated in a special way.
