Pros

The pay at Best Buy is great compared to other places to work. The atmosphere is a fun, laid back place to work, however that can be a downfall as well! The employees at my store are all good friends and go out together. The managers listen to what you have to say and try their best to get your situation taken care of. Overall, Best Buy is a good place to work.

Cons

There are favorites at Best Buy and if you are not a favorite of the manager, you don't get as good of opportunities as others.

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.
