Pros

- Great co-workers - Staff Discounts - Best Buy Brand looks great on resume

Cons

- Compensation. Pays under market compared to other local companies. Especially in IT - No growth opportunity. Expects someone to be in their position for 5 + years without any sort of growth or learning opportunity - Wants to compete with other big players such as Amazon, Microsoft, Facebook, etc, but lacks the infrastructure to do so. - Losing great talents across the board because of Managers not listening to their employees.

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.
