Pros

There weren't very many other than the discount.

Cons

Best Buy has to have been one of the most difficult and challenging places to work. There are rarely any opportunities to move up in the company. What is more than likely to happen is that Best Buy will hire someone from outside the company or someone who is already in a management position in the organization, but rarely from the bottom up. As their business has begun to shrink and also spike downwards, they've had to make major adjustments to the business as well as to the positions in the store, so it is common to have one associate wearing two or three hats for the same pay. I wouldn't recommend it. Period. It's not worth the time or the pay for retail.

Pros

Pay, fairly easy to communicate, lot of work, flexible schedule

Cons

Big corporation, impossible to implement new ideas that actually work, they change things based on some crazy idea from a Executive that never had any hands on experience, they make major changes out of nowhere!
