Pros

Easy-going work environment coupled with desire to win makes Best Buy a great place for a younger person or college student to work. The employee discount is amazing and as a general rule lower-level management and supervisors come from within the company, so you're usually being led by somebody who has done what you're doing and knows what limitations are faced in your work environment. In my store, employees really worked together to get the job done, which makes everybody's life significantly easier.

Cons

Little is offered in terms of annual raises or promises of advancement. You kind of have to find a job, get good at it, and hope a position opens up someday that needs somebody in your field.
