Pros

There are no pros working at Best Buy

Cons

HR tracks each and every employee login and logout. 10 to 4 and then login in back to sync with the US team. Full of unwanted processes. Getting one approval on a design takes atleast a month and implementing a smallest of feature takes atleast 2 months. Buffons are Director and senior managers here.

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.
