Retail staffs are badly paid compared to corporate staffs. No commissions, no profit sharing. Most retail staffs are living paycheck to paycheck. Especially those in the Bay Area, the stipends they are paid mostly goes towards rent.

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.

Specialist (Former Employee) - New South Wales - 7 March 2022

Liked working at Apple but no work life balance as you had to work most weekends, and didn’t have a set 5 day roster for full time.

At times it was really busy and felt understaffed, and most people felt overworked and burned out.


I recommend Apple to work, you will learn a lot, make amazing friends and if you don’t stY there it will look incredible on your resume for future opportunities, just also look after your mental and physical health at the same time.

An okay job for someone just starting out. Some room for advancement. Not a place you’d like to stick around for too long. Customers can be difficult

Spécialiste (Former Employee) - Bordeaux (33) - 7 March 2022

Apple a été la première grande entreprise dans laquelle j'ai eu la chance de travailler. C'était une expérience très enrichissante et très agréable, la communication entre les managers et les collaborateurs était très bonne et très organisée, je me suis jamais sentie abandonnée et je savais que je peux demander n'importe quelle question sans jugement.

L'equipe, les avantages, l'ambiance du travail

Technical Specialist (Former Employee) - Cardiff - 5 March 2022

Worked here as a technical specialist for a couple years. The absolute worst work culture I’ve ever been in. It’s like being in school all over again. People are cliquey, management are atrocious and actively encourage and engage in damaging gossip. If you’re seen as an outlier you will be made to feel ostracised. Felt a huge amount of relief upon leaving and only wish I had done so sooner.

IMPORTANTE
Para empezar tendrían que separar Macstore de Apple, Son cosas completamente diferentes. En Macstore (para donde yo trabaje) es un outsourcing que NO tiene nada que ver con Apple, El ambiente laboral es horrible en cualquier sucursal. Hacen cosas fuera de la ley y todo para afectar al trabajador.

Las prestaciones al margen de la ley.

Apple At Home Advisor (Former Employee) - Work at home - 5 March 2022

Overall the job was generally pleasing. I learned a lot and had a great time helping customers with their apple products. The general downfall is the lack of outside time I had. Minimal opportunity to attend clubs or meetings outside of work for school was the ultimate reason why I left.

Fun company to work for and managers love to help you succeed. It can be stressful at times due to large call volume and angry customers but you also talk to a lot of people from all over NA and can have some great conversations. There are many more positives that outweigh the negatives.

Tier 1 Technical Support (Former Employee) - Remote - 3 March 2022

Mandatory OT during new software rollouts. Up to 3 chats at a time, unable to prioritize a customer when answering ASAP for time limit metrics. Management cared more about customer service than fixing the problem. If you can nicely tell someone that their expensive device is messed up you're golden. Very stressful to be assisting 3 customers with Mac issues, testing can be very in-depth.

Managers talk a lot about progression, but the progression is only for people they like regardless of how good you are at your job.

Product Specialist/Sales (Former Employee) - Las Vegas, NV - 2 March 2022

Worked at Apple retail as a Product Specialist for approximately 5 months, on a seasonal contract.

I am in my mid thirties and have held dozens of jobs in my lifetime, as such, I tend to approach most new jobs with a very low tolerance for BS. I'll walk.


I did have a couple of those moments there but after a couple of weeks, it quickly became clear that this company actually "buys what it sells"; they believe in their culture.


The compensation is great and benefits are awesome.


Advancing does seem to be difficult though, as you will be competing with internal applicants with literal years of experience with Apple on most open positions.


I absolutely recommend this company. If you are invited for a role or position, I encourage you to take it. You won't get a much better offer, IMO.

Specialist (Former Employee) - Roma, Lazio - 2 March 2022

Dopo un anno di lavoro e due rinnovi, cinque colloqui sostenuti in tutto compreso anche l’ultimo organizzato a un mese dalla scadenza del secondo contratto, l’ultimo giorno di lavoro mi è stato comunicato che non sarei rimasta senza ricevere motivazioni alcune se non “scelte aziendali che non hanno a che fare con te o il tuo contributo in azienda”. Il management è stato sempre sfuggente e poco chiaro e nessuno mi ha mai seguito realmente. Si è sempre costantemente osservati e qualsiasi cosa viene riportata silenziosamente ai piani alti. Non ho trovato alcuna coerenza tra la politica aziendale decantata a parole e quella dei fatti. L’ennesima azienda in cui vai avanti per simpatie e parentele. Una vera e propria delusione.

Benefits, stipendio adeguato.

No life/work balance, pressione per il raggiungimento degli obiettivi.

Pay starts at 16.00. You choose between schedules, a lot of good options. The trainer was amazing then it ends when your dumbed into production with a not so nice TL. They say they don't micromanage but they definitely do to the extreme and I never have done call avoidance or gave them any reason but still rode my back. Then it turned to my internet had to be messed up. My internet was fine and still fine. Just wasn't for me. All I wanted to do was work.

On apprend beaucoup dans cette entreprise, après d’un marché à l’autre c’est différent, le sud ou nord voir centre c’est pas les mêmes managers, interêt, ils vont vibrent les valeurs de la marque différemment.
Mais à faire au moins comme une expérience

Apple is the best company to work for in the industry.
Could pay more, but can't beat the flexibility, benefits and culture. I think they're working on the pay.

Specialist (Former Employee) - Woodmere, OH - 1 March 2022

I enjoyed the time I spent at Apple as a specialist. My coworkers were amazing people and very supportive. It never felt like we were competing with each other. Management was a different story. The company intentionally hired out of company for leadership and when one of us did get promoted to a leadership position (which was rare) they were transferred to another store. This made management extremely out of touch with us and likely to corporate easier to manipulate to go along with whatever initiative they were trying.

Apple looks great on my resume to this day, I had amazing coworkers, The discounts on apple products were pretty cool

Out of touch management is what really shot all of the good stuff in the foot.

I truly want to work nowhere else after these past four months as a temporary seasonal employee with Apple. The diversity, the inclusion, the feedback, the teamwork, the vision we all strive for was always in sync. I hate that they didn't have enough spots to hire me on. But I will continue to apply until I can become a permanent employee. I do hope to be back at some capacity and continue to develop and find growth in the company. Everyday I walked away knowing I had helped many people in our community no just buy products. But I got to do so much more then that. We brought back hope in a helpless situation. We provided some advice to improve your security and protect your family. We helped you regain those memories you thought you lost, then taught you how to turn them into a masterpiece. I can't wait, to get a call saying we would like to invite you once again to an interview!

It brought so much joy working with our community in that capacity.

Managment are Coaches and mentors, not power hungry sicofants

Little to no control over your own schedule beside picking up shifts, getting rid of them or scheduling days off doesn't garuntee you as having off.
