Pros

Best Buy is a great company to work for. As a whole the company puts a great deal of emphasis on trying to keep their employees happy. The benefits as a whole are quite amazing, and the compensation is great in comparison to other companies like them.

Cons

I found that on a store and district level that favoritism plays heavily into how management treats employees. Promotions are not always given to those that deserve it, but more so on who they like more.

Pros

23 days PTO - If you are a retail manager you could be the next Director

Cons

Can't take PTO and really get away from work. Poor customer service avenue for processing simple orders, exchanges and returns. Internal departments restrict customer facing account managers ability to provide good customer service or make sound business decisions.
