Pros

Many possible career paths, take the initiative and you can move across functions easily. A great place for self motivated people to gain diverse experience. Feels like significant change is around the corner, finally.

Cons

We need to get more new blood into the company, at corporate and in stores. Too many people only know best buy and are incapable of thinking beyond how things have always been done. It's a stressful workplace and the strong performers are overworked and under compensated.

Pros

Flexible hours, employee perks such as discounted products, offers 401(k) despite being part-time, coworkers who are nice to work with.

Cons

Management is quick to call-out sales that have nothing attached to it (warranties, card applications, memberships, or accessories). There is a rodent problem that has not been addressed for nearly a year; food and beverages cannot be sold at this store.
