Pros

Great pay scale compared to similar job functions. If you can get in touch with the right people, you can move up quickly. This all depends on your manager, however.

Cons

Highly political. It's all about who you know. The management says it isn't about seniority for promotions, but you will find out that this is *all* its about.

Pros

Fair compensation compared to other jobs. Best Buy is also a company that is not going anywhere soon. It is hard for me to give any better explanation for my work at Best Buy, because I was a cashier. There is room for advancement in the company, but you need to start with a degree in order to go places.

Cons

Retail sales are not the most exciting positions. The increase in hours during the holiday's, when you wish you had time off, is never exciting. But this is the same with any retail company.
