Apple Employee Reviews

Working at Apple was a great experience. Work never felt like work because I loved what I did and I loved interacting with the public. The store was always electric, although others may say crazy. I'd say electric because the experience was exhilarating. The managers were all great and they were never above doing what they asked of their employees. The benefits and pay were amazing for a part time job. Working for a company with a brand such as Apple and experience to match that brand made me want to stay forever. This is a job I truly miss and I am thankful for the opportunity that I was given!

Pros

Work environment

Cons

Parking

Great employee benefits, impossible mobility

Senior Advisor (Current Employee) - Remote - December 10, 2023

Pay so so. Benefits great. No movement within. Raises are based on annual performance as is schedule bidding. High high standards- they tell you upfront it’s hard to get a “meets expectation” and “exceeds” are rare. If you want opportunities- don’t have a family. Rotations are hard to get and other opportunities require relocation but they won’t accommodate you with kids.

Was great, not anymore

Mac Genius (Current Employee) - California - December 10, 2023

Great for the first 5 years, but afterwards the koolaid gets REAL bitter. Experience really depends on your management. Management gets paid close to 6 figures for doing nothing. Co-workers can be cool, but some exhibit some seriously concerning Apple cult behaviors. Good job for while you’re in college (part time hours fluctuate which can be a good thing or a bad thing) but definitely not a career. No clear path from retail to corporate either.

Metric driven

Sales Specialist (Current Employee) - Brea, CA - December 9, 2023

Metric driven with no rewards. Constantly being pushed by management to reach targets that are far beyond store average or even possible. Good for short term only

Metric based, small environment and cool Co-workers

Sales Specialist (Current Employee) - Broward County, FL - December 7, 2023

Awful leadership to start off. They do orientation with mental health, passion for customer service and more in mind but don't actually abide by it. They constantly target and attack you to reach these metrics that don't merit any incentive to reach.You can target metrics consistently and even be a leader in those catergories and the manager will reap the benefits with 5 figure bonuses. It isn't fair for a 3 trillion dollar company they are truly selfish when compared to the overall compensation of companies.Best for short term, they work with schedule if you're in school wouldn't go further than that.

Woke Agenda

Technical Specialist (Former Employee) - Seattle, WA - December 6, 2023

Forced woke meetings every morning in retail environment. Have to walk on eggshells around everyone. Only good benefit was they help pay tuition, and had many benefits for a retail job, especially for a college student.

Great place to work

Distribution Clerk (Former Employee) - San Francisco, CA - December 6, 2023

In my job as a distribution clerk, I managed the flow of goods in a distribution center. My responsibilities included receiving, storing, and dispatching products. I keep track of inventory, ensure proper storage of items, and process orders. I use computer systems to monitor inventory levels and order statuses. Part of my work involves preparing items for shipping, including packing, labeling, and making sure they are sent to the right destination. I really enjoyed my time.

Fell Smitten with the company and the apple lifestyle.

Human Resources Generalist (Former Employee) - 767 5th Avenue - December 6, 2023

Get in past all the biometric scanning. To then go up stairs and clock in like normal. Do a mental health check in and then daily group debrief called “ daily download”. Open conversation about operations and everyones well being. Proceed to walk to provide an experience to clientele. The most rewarding part is meeting people from all around the world, and having those moments of relation with people who have different perspectives on view of life. Rapport always super amazing. Best job I've ever had. Gives me purpose. They care so much about you so you can care more about the people who make the company flourish. Balanced Ecosystem based on love.

Pros

Rapport Building, Employee wellness

bad work

Intership (Former Employee) - Los Angeles County, CA - December 6, 2023

ProsWe work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?ConsZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care

Horrible place unless your single and can sleep around

Apple Genius (Former Employee) - Marlborough, MA - December 5, 2023

Worked there 3 years. Everyone was sleeping with everyone married or not. As long as you stayed on the managers good side and didn’t actually try to help customers but instead help apples balance sheet by selling things or getting people to trade in for new garbage, you would be fine. Try to actually help people and you get talked to for taking too much time or finding a solution that’s best for the customer but not Apple.
