Pros

The discounts on certain items and the opportunity to learn about new technology. Great co-workers and managers that actually care (some of them).

Cons

As soon as you get used to a policy or procedure it changes. Best Buy would be a better place to work if the "rules" weren't constantly changing. Additionally, the pressure to sell service plans can be stressfull.

Pros

No Need to sell or deal with customers (Much) Constantly moving so you always have a task to do Management leaves you to your own devices Almost all warehouse employees have a set of headphone

Cons

Everyone (Cust & employees) Expect an encyclopedic knowledge on where every single item is. Management seems to think we can lift a 85" tv, pull a washer off the top shelf, stock gaming shelves, and handle store pick up at the same moment. Customers think we don't want to help them when we call someone else to help with sales There's almost too much to do and even though we may have 1-3 employees working at a time, 1 is at the door, 1 is behind store pick up, which leaves 1 employee to handle new orders, deliveries, and down stocking.
