Pros

- Brand Name - Discount on devices - Health insurance includes dental and vision

Cons

Culture, policies and facilities not at par with other Tech companies (even the smaller ones) - Work from home policy - NO - Flexible working hours - NO - Free meals - NO - Company transportation - NO - Recreation - Fussball, TT etc. - NO - Fully stocked pantry - NO (Two coffee machines with almost no options for snacks. Not even ready made tea). - Employee Rewards - NO - Outings - Never saw one - Internet Reimbursements - NO Work - Definitely not the best - Waterfall model in most of the teams - Internal tools used for almost everything. No slack, JIRA or confluence - Work with lot of vendors. Might not be the best thing for your career. Compensation - Stocks are a huge part of compensation, highly volatile, have been performing badly. Pro Tip: - Carry a bag with you on first day of your joining. You won't get any.

Pros

For any position you get awesome salary. Additionally, you get discounts on Apple products upto 17 % for friends and family on every product but you are limited to 10 products of each category(10phones, 10 airpods, 10 macbooks etc). And for your personal use you get 27% but limited to one product of each category. You also get 500USD credit additionally for every 2 years. You get 15 % discount on stocks but you can just buy them you can only opt to buy shares from your salary and the company will automatically deduct the amount from the salary. It is similar to VPF where you choose the percentage of deduction. Here you can only choose from 0 to 10% of your salary to be invested in shares. You cannot additionally buy elsewhere for 15% discount. You can also avail 155000 INR for any educational courses that you need to do. During the pandemic they also reimbursed for furniture.

Cons

The work culture is good not that interactive. All of the decision making is in Cupertino(HQ) and if you want to contribute to the process then it is not possible. You don't even have someone in the leadership to collaborate with. They give the work and you have to do it, contrary to Amazon where if you propose something and the leadership finds it impactful then they give you the ownership and also collaborate with you on that idea/project. If you want to just work and leave then its great for you but if you want to do something more apart from usual work then the aforementioned applies. The educational courses mentioned need to be relevant to your work that you are doing at Apple and if your work and the educational course are not in the same field you won't get reimbursed. Furniture reimbursement is limited to 100 USD(7000INR) which is quite less. You either get a good table or an ergonomic chair but not both. There are not much ad-hoc tasks apart from the daily work which is pretty monotonous and tiring. For this particular role(grading analyst) they give you iMac and not Macbooks to work so WorkFromHome is not allowed under ideal conditions. Due to the pandemic the iMacs were transported to everyone's homes and WFH was established for the team. There is no transport provided by the company but that's manageable since they are paying a lot.
