Pros

It seems to be good for a resume. People believe that Apple is hot.

Cons
  • Average salary
  • Poor bonus with no stocks
  • Objective-C/Cocoa is only what matters; don't even bother if you're an HTML5/JS person.
  • Not much innovation in a lot of departments, especially IS&T.
  • Very little diversity in a lot of departments.
Advice to Management

Pay more to engineers, offer better bonuses, and provide free food.
