Pros

The best reasons to work for Best Buy are the training and customers that come in everyday. One day you'll see a football star, the next day a musical composer.

Cons

The constant brainwashing of forcing credit cards and other services people really don't need. Sure they are good at sales but I have personally witnessed a poor family coming in only to leave with a $3,000 computer that i know will not be able to make the monthly payments.

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.
