Pros

The experience looks good on resume. Good discounts, and the people that work there are fun people.I think they do a good job in giving young kids the chance to have a job and discover, and what they are good at. Also when working at Best Buy you learn a lot about team work. You interact with customers of all kinds and you become to have an understanding of how to treat customers and interact with them on all business levels. All in all Best Buy is a good place for short time while going to school type of job.

Cons

Low pay, Long hours, managers take the side of the customer and through you under the buss.

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.
