Best Buy Sales Associate and Computer Associate reviews

These same goals can haunt you every month if you're not constantly looking to make a sale. Depending on which department you work in, you could be stuck having to meet ridiculous goals. For example, in the Computer department, the team was expected to make $1100-$1300 an hour on our slowest months. Other departments cap at $650 an hour which is so much more manageable. If you begin to fall behind on your goals, the management's true colors will show. Some of them will be understanding and coach you through the process of selling products effectively. However, some can resort to very offensive critiques and will threaten to fire you. I heard a story from one person who said when they were failing to meet their goals for three months in a row, so the general manager told them, "You better start getting ready to flip burgers the way you're selling."

Long hours. Closing procedure takes an hour or two
