Pros

I've meet alot of my good friends working at best buy. Alot of the employees are pretty good and easy people to get along with.

Cons

Corporate just hates you. You can be the beat seller of all time selling product out the window and be number 1 in the district and they will nit care and say just do better. Unless you work in home theater. GeekSquad is probably the worst position in the store since Beat Buy and Apple made a contract. Also you just het yelled at by people before you even know what the issue is. The 'training' you get is just lousy at best and same for the Advanced repair agent role. Also if you are in GeekSquad your direct manager will rarely be there to help with over flow and also if you get busy no one in the store can help you when it gets to busy.

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.
