Pros
I would recommend BBY for people in school who want to learn a little about business, execution of strategies, and have no desire to advance unless they are female.
Cons
Common sense is in short supply. Don't look for leadership from the general managers. While not totally at fault they are not connected or engaged in the stores. Most of the GMs are off on Sundays and Mondays with district meetings several times per month. As a result of the dis-connect they often play the role of "albatross managers" by flying into the stores, dumping, collecting a paycheck then taking off again. With respect to senior level management the decision to inflate Geek Squad numbers to Wall Street by inboarding is a short-term answer to current economic environment and only forcing additional erosion of precious gross margin dollars. One of the BBY values of "Grow through challenge and change" is grossly over-utilized for the sake of show changes on a score card. The addition of new tool kit on the intranet is a classic example of change for the sake of change as opposed to change for growth.
