I have been working at Best Buy full-time for more than 3 years
Pros
The operations management cares about retaining people for the position and takes lots of input how to improve shrink while following SOP. Training is easy to pick up.
Cons
No direct career advancement for position. Newly hired employees are hired at higher pay than the veterans, and won’t adjust pay to keep even. They hire at higher rate to recruit talent, but don’t care as much about retainment. This location has 2 doors, so harder to reduce shrink due to not seeing all traffic coming in. Sales team only sees $ signs for moving up, and not preventing shrink from occurring .

Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookApproves of CEOI have been working at Best Buy part-time for more than a year
Pros
-Work with cool electronics -Awesome vendor accommodations -Corporate systems are reliable
Cons
-Management is never on the same page as each other -Expected to contact customers in your area multiple times like you're a used car salesman -Workplace drama gets out of control, especially in a larger store with more employees -Employee discount is not what you think it is. IRS states that a discount larger than 20% granted by a corporation has to be reported as taxable income. Example: If you buy a set of speakers for 600 dollars with the employee discount, and list price is 1200 dollars, that is a 50 percent discount. So, the 600 dollars you saved at the time of sale, is later reported on your paycheck on the pay period you purchased the speakers as "Merchandise Rcvd". You are taxed for 600 dollars made. There have been employees in the store that have saved money for large purchases, made the purchase, and then the following check they receive is only 10 dollars, because most of their check has been taxed. Of course, they don't mention this to you at NEI (New Employee Induction) when they first hire you.

Great employee discount, that's about the only thing they have going for them.
Cons
Even though the employees aren't on commission they are told to sell sell sell, and don't care about the customers because they could be fired for low sales. I went in with a computer background already and the other employees were telling outright lies to get the sale.
