Pros

For the most part Best Buy is a great place to work. They are very flexible with hours and dont give you much trouble when you need some time off. The pay is above average if you can prove yourself within the first years review. Also if the store does well employees are rewarded with employee profit sharing. Most employees are usually nice to each other but can be rude to customers. The work environment is very good but if you are the one to go above and beyond others just watch and do not do their job. Again overall I think that it is a good place to work it just may take some time to get where you want to be in the company.

Cons

When you try to go above and beyond, many times managers do not see what you have done.

Pros

I use to like working for best buy, but now it seems that all we are doing is pushing branded payments and worrying about services, services and more services. we dont have any fun at work anymore. Its tiring to get yelled out and there is never any recognition anymore. but i still like my benefits, but i am actively looking for other employment. i feel that we are losing more and more good sales associates and leaders and not holding store managers to the same levels of standards that are being demanded of us by those same incompetent managers!

Cons

discount is the only benefit
