Pros
opportunity to work with amazing, talented people. great opportunities on discounts applicable to third party accessories. access to stock options, software, discounts on apple products, health benefits and more. lots of focus on training and time to meet with managers to discuss your goals.
Cons
poor work-life balance. retail hours are all over the map. our store focused primarily on attachments- one to one memberships and applecare. it created an incredibly negative environment for anyone working in sales and took competition out of the friendly zone. it was pretty much impossible to move up without sipping the kool-aid and racking up a good attachment rate. I don't know how it is at other stores, but it has been communicated to me that some stores may be more relaxed than others, depending on traffic. The customers can get really aggressive, to the point where they're yelling or grabbing at you.
