I don't see a great outcome for this company in the long run. I forsee them closing in 10 or less years. - Mobile Sales Consultant Best Buy Employee Review

Pros

5% Above Cost discount on various products through-out store. Accessories are probably one of these things that I benefitted from most. Insignia gets you a greater discount than most.

Cons

Management Consistency, Favoritism, I felt that once I arrived at Best Buy from when I first started I saw a huge turnover in the employees I started with. It was almost like if anybody thought outside of the box. People were set up to be terminated without explaining the policies to these employees. I personally was wrote up for something that I didn't initiate in a phone activation. Once I observed and remembered what was done I documented all my information. The Store Manager himself owed me an apology as I was set up due to a manager not liking me because I didn't sell services I didn't believe in myself. Later found this out and opted out of their department and bided my time until I could find something that I could receive benefits and a full time status.

Pros

No Need to sell or deal with customers (Much) Constantly moving so you always have a task to do Management leaves you to your own devices Almost all warehouse employees have a set of headphone

Cons

Everyone (Cust & employees) Expect an encyclopedic knowledge on where every single item is. Management seems to think we can lift a 85" tv, pull a washer off the top shelf, stock gaming shelves, and handle store pick up at the same moment. Customers think we don't want to help them when we call someone else to help with sales There's almost too much to do and even though we may have 1-3 employees working at a time, 1 is at the door, 1 is behind store pick up, which leaves 1 employee to handle new orders, deliveries, and down stocking.
