Fun workplace if you are there less than three years! And then the total opposite!

What is the best part of working at the company?The discrimination against me as an Arab was the best part of working at the company! It made me realise that I’m in the wrong place! What is the most stressful part about working at the company?The instructions given to employees that was denied when things go wrong! What is the work environment and culture like at the company?They encourage diversity and inclusion, however there are exceptions made! What is a typical day like for you at the company?Stress, stress and stress! Be yourself is what they encourage and then you get told off for being yourself!

great

nice staff and great meeting customers. Hours can be abit of a pain and you are just a number. At the end of the day it’s a means to an end and not for everyone.

Benefits keeping me here

I joined Apple several years ago and as time has gone on, I’ve felt less happy. The jobs demanding, and the public are even more so. The benefits are great, as is the pay, but the job is mentally draining

Fun place to work

Great team. Loads of perks. Good pay. You would get to learn a lot. Unlike any retail jobs. Staff perks and discounts. Fun work events. Health benefits.

Pros

Helpful teammates, great atmosphere to work

Cons

Stores can get really busy at times

Save yourself

Don’t do it to yourself, it’s a dead end job painted out to be a company that cares about you when in reality they really don’t, you’re just a number.

Pros

Cons

Good place

Good training provided and fun colleagues to work with only downside is the hours can be long. Management generally helpful and you got the chance to work with different clients everyday

Productive and fun workplace

Apple had a fantastic building to work in at the ex Battersea Power Station with a spacious environment to solder parts to the iphones, ipads etc. Thumbs up from me

Stress and no work/home balance

Great products and reasonable pay. You will work all weekends, your personal life non-existent, a very stressful work environment. You are just a number even if they say you are important. Very beaurocractic structure

It’s very hard work, but if you are a self starter and work hard, you can build an amazing career!

What is the best part of working at the company?A fast paced, exciting environment, where people are valued. Excellent rewards and benefits too!What is the most stressful part about working at the company?It’s busy. You’re going to work hard, and there is a lot expected of you. If you embrace it, and push yourself, the opportunities are amazing!What is the work environment and culture like at the company?The culture is one of connection and supporting each other. Excellence is expected, and you should know that before your even apply. You can have loads of fun, and you can be assured that your hard work is appreciated.What is a typical day like for you at the company?On the go all of the time, but your work life balance is important to the business. In my role I spend a lot of time connect with people, coaching, encouraging and supporting. I collaborate with peers to improve things always, and change is an everyday part of the job.

Good

It can be a good place to work, sometimes long hours and sometimes even longer but not bad job for the money. In my opinion one of the better jobs I have had

Competitive and enjoyable experience working as a product specialist

I worked for apple for a year as a PZ specialist. They expect a lot from employees and you’re constantly having to prove you’re capabilities. The staff are the best people and we’re nothing more than supportive. It’s challenging to remember all the product / service information but everyone is so willing to help answer questions.

Pros

Discounts, health benefits, experience

Cons

Long days, pressure

Great place if you're in a store that allows progression

Apple is a great place to work if you are looking for a part time role at university or something similar. If you are looking to progress and are working in a store that doesn't have many opportunities to progress, then you're already at a dead end job. The interview process for new roles is poor in my opinion. Someone could be working towards that role for 10 years, but someone who joined 6 months ago has the same eligibility and chance. It basically comes down to if you can answer a few questions better than your competition. The pay is also skewed, it seems to be the higher up you are, the less work you do, the more money you get. The payment increases between roles are quite sufficient but you often find if you are in a less advanced role, you are doing the job of the people higher up, and have them get the praise for it. I have been working in the same Apple store for 5 years and the feeling amongst my team members is the store is dull, bland and people have no interest in being there due to lack of support. I can't comment on all apple stores, but i feel it would be somewhat similar.

Pros

Flexibility

Cons

Pay isn't that good in the bigger picture, progression, workload, support.

Good!

Great company to work for however diversity at leadership level is non existent. You are not pressured to make sales as the brand speaks for itself. Work/life balance is pretty difficult however it is retail.
