Pros

The discounts are nice, leadership is different depending on the person but most of the managers are young and still have attitudes that they take out on employee's alot of the time.

Cons

They don't let you advance. When first getting hired with Best Buy I applied for computers or Geek Squad, I didn't get hired for either one though I finally did get into computers but they will not let me into Geek Squad even though I'm doing the work of an agent already. Basically I'm doing double the work for the same horrible pay that allows me to live paycheck to paycheck

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.
