Pros

Apple employees are valued very much by other employers. Their next job is always easy. They have the opportunity to work on the latest technology.

Cons

Work resembles that of a startup without enough rewards.

Long work hours. Employees are loyal to the company, but the company does not seem to care about employee retention.

In product development groups, employee turnover is high. In the iPod group where I worked, on average, every month there would be about 40-50 employees leaving the company and approximately the same number would join as well.

Advice to Management

Provide better benefits and improve employee satisfaction, beyond just promoting pride in working for Apple.
