Pros

Recognition is great at Best Buy but it sometimes seems to be an excuse to pay employees lower but give recognition. If you want to change something normally there are people who will listen to you and try to change things within reason.

Cons

There is very little training and it takes a long time to learn what is expected of you other than making budget or learning by mistakes. Some of the supervisors and managers seem to try and find reasons to fire people that they don't get along with and let them know they are replaceable.

Pros

No Need to sell or deal with customers (Much) Constantly moving so you always have a task to do Management leaves you to your own devices Almost all warehouse employees have a set of headphone

Cons

Everyone (Cust & employees) Expect an encyclopedic knowledge on where every single item is. Management seems to think we can lift a 85" tv, pull a washer off the top shelf, stock gaming shelves, and handle store pick up at the same moment. Customers think we don't want to help them when we call someone else to help with sales There's almost too much to do and even though we may have 1-3 employees working at a time, 1 is at the door, 1 is behind store pick up, which leaves 1 employee to handle new orders, deliveries, and down stocking.
