      Pros

      Best Buy is a great to make a career out of a High School Diploma. All you have to do is work hard and kiss ass from when you 1st start to make your way up to a nice management salary where you will be satisfied for many years. It does not take a lot of knowledge or skills, simply acting like you care and making friends with management and always asking to get promoted will land you a successful career for many years if you don't mind complaints from customers. On a lower level: discount is GREAT on many accessories/TVs/Car Audio/Sometimes Appliances. Best Buy will work great around your schedule for part timers and even full time.

      Cons

      Because management is not the most qualified group of individuals, you have to deal with every day people that made it to their position by social status. If you happen to get a good supervisor or manager then it can benefit you also though. It is not a very official or professional company. Training sucks! But if you can make it to the top pretty easy, who cares?
