Pros
Discount is good. Pay is competitive. Generally coworkers are great. Many locations to work at, especially convenient if you are wanting to move to a different city or location. Good assortment of accommodation programs from vendors as well, Intel, Samsung, Apple, Sony, many others all provide deals to Best Buy associates.
Cons
Politics. You MUST kiss rear to go anywhere. Results do not mean anything. Hypocrisy. At all the stores I've been to, management at a store and district level (and as far I know, territory and above) do not subscribe to their own company values. They hire externally and pay MUCH more to external candidates than to more qualified and trained internal candidates for positions.
