Pros

I like the environment and the discounts.

Cons

Long hours. Also when I apply for management, get passed over for someone "more qualified". We get 2 more people new in our dept. So now I have to train 2 newbies to BBY. As well as a MANAGER, thats new to BBY. So how is this more qualified then I?!

Pros

-It's a job that is available in most locations.

Cons

-The company, on a corporate level, doesn't seem to grasp the value of the talent they have. - Close ties with Citibank subvert the importance of product knowledge, customer service, and revenue for credit card sales. - Daily Performance check-ins are overbearing and myopic. - Tends to burnout motivated employees with false carrots and hollow promises. - Pay's terrible, and rides the line of predatory at times.
