Pros

The best reasons to work at a place like Best Buy, is that the compensation is okay in the sense that you'll make more that minimum wage and the job is not too difficult. You don't need too much experience to get a job there and training is pretty easy plus you're paid more than minimum wage.

Cons

There tends to be issues with management and lack off communication. There is a lot of corporate talk and everyone doesn't really discuss wages because everyone gets paid a different amount. So if you are lucky try and negotiate don't be afraid to ask for more.

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.
