Pros

Decent benefits (corporate amenities, health benefits) The CEO (Hubert) is a strong leader Well known brand The employees are largely personable

Cons

IT is largely outsourced (though it's getting better) Many business teams build their own IT independent of any processes Processes are set in place but there are no reprocussions if they are not followed Most of the company operates on Access databases or excel and are unwilling to stay up with current technologies No data governance Many leaders are disconnected from the work being performed Limited incentive for IT talent to work for Best Buy

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.
