Pros

The benefits of working at Best Buy are great, the employee discounts are awesome, schedule flexibility is decent, but it depends on the immediate supervisor unfortunately.

Cons

The fact that favoritism has alot to do with promoting is and always will be a huge growth killer for any company in my opinion. The right people who are qualified dont get promoted and usually dont last with the company. Corporate only sees numbers when it comes to promoting and fails to see the real efforts of the underdogs within a given location which, again, results in undeserved promoting.

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.
