Pros

I did whatever I wanted. Watching shows on my phone, eating on the job, playing around, having fun that doesn’t involve work.

Cons

Best Buy is a scam. I know this because they make me scam people too. They force you to apply for a credit card which is a hard hit, and say no it soft or won’t make an impact. They sell you a $180 membership claiming it’s warranty but they don’t tell the customer it is a yearly contract. And if a customer cancels it, every item they have warranty on cancels along with it. And the $50 paid membership is stupid all for a 60 day return policy. Growth is based on favoritism, not by performance. They have high goals so they tell you to do whatever it takes. They have no morals. This list could go on, I could write a whole book about the horrors of Best Buy.

Pros

Staff is great and willing to help you learn and grow.

Cons

Part time, no room for growth as “budget” for the store doesn’t allow for full time.
