Vantaggi
– Great salary – Good name for the resume – Semi-decent discounts on Apple products – Special concerts by great artists during summer Beer Bash
Svantaggi
– Very poor leadership – Work w/ a wide range of people: from ex-agency folks who are sharp to 50 year old parents who want the salary and stock but not the hours – Work within creative and strategic constraints (thinking outside the box is discouraged) – No accountability from leadership down – Flat organization which prevents a lot of growth – Recruiting is sharp and well-trained in pitching the job, etc. – Easier to get into Apple then to leave (no exit interview, no benefit reviews, shuts off cell service, etc.) – Too much gray. – Operations (process and response time) is hit and miss from IS&T to HR – Very impersonal because it is so large. Each department has their own internal intranet site and emails and hotlines. The in-person HR lead knowledge is inconsistent to the hotline.
