Pros

The friends you gain while working there. These are the people who will put in a good word for you, people you hang out with after work. The one thing I hated about leaving Best Buy was that I did not get to work with these people everyday. They were really good friends.

Cons

The management sometimes and the people. The management is really bad about promotions. Some people who did not deserve it was getting promoted and some who did were not because they were such a seller, they did not want to lose that person who was bringing in all the revenue. There were also times in which management gave hours to people who did not deserve it because they were playing favorites.

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.
