Pros

- Great staff - Fun work environment - Pay is competitive

Cons

I got this job while I was still in college, and they had me driving to a local store, and then to one that was about an hour away. I did all of my work in the mornings (5:30am) so I would have to wake up at an ungodly hour to get there. They also had some rule where they won't have to compensate you for gas if your house is with 60 miles of the store or something... Thats was the only bad part about the job/

Pros

Best Buy is a fast-paced environment where employees at all levels are encouraged to take ownership in advancing the business.

Cons

The recent re-structure of Best Buy retail locations has made it a bit more difficult to advance. Employees must take the initiative to train and go the extra mile to move ahead in this company.

Pros

The discount has to be by far the best discount ever/ You get things pretty much half off. Which is awesome! Pay reate is defintely good, based on previous experience of course. Freedom to change prices for customers. Management was great. Everyone communicated properly. Overall great work environment

Cons

Best Buy does monitor how much you use your dicount. They keep a track of everything you buy to make sure you aren't buying things for friends and family. Or boosting as well I assume l, because the discount is that deep.
