Pros

Saved gas, no commute, paid training, Not much else to say as far as pros, Even if you are computer savy, you will still be confused on some of the policies and also how to navigate in 6 different systems, plus learning pages and pages of company issues. They use IE and Java which is not compatible so expect a lot of system issues.

Cons

To be a work at home agent for Best Buy you have to buy an office phone with a mute button $45.00 headset $25.00. You also need a hardwired land line and it cost me $80.00 plus $20.00 a month just for a dial tone, high speed internet $60.00. Training is only 1 wk to learn 6 systems and it is not fun at all, our trainer was distraced most of the time and very scattered with the subjects. I started 3 wks ago and still no pay.

Pros

Flexible hours, employee perks such as discounted products, offers 401(k) despite being part-time, coworkers who are nice to work with.

Cons

Management is quick to call-out sales that have nothing attached to it (warranties, card applications, memberships, or accessories). There is a rodent problem that has not been addressed for nearly a year; food and beverages cannot be sold at this store.
