Vantaggi
The employee discount policy is one of the greatest benefits of working for the number one consumer electronics retailer in America. Paying 5% over Best Buy's cost for nearly every item in the store is one of the best benefits offered by this company. The medical/dental/vision plans offered are mediocre at best, other retailers offer slightly better benefits. As for financial benefits (Stock Purchase program, etc.) there's nothing special about Best Buy.
Svantaggi
The downsides of working for the company are the management in some stores, and the fact that they change their focus weekly. (i.e. if something isn't working to produce revenue or desired results after just one week, they change the focus of the entire store. This has a see-saw effect on the financial results, and effectively eliminates the opportunity for employees to earn a bonus.
