Best Buy

Best Buy had a great discount, decent health benefits, 401k match up to 5%, and a lot of great leaders and employees.

Best Buy was pretty high levels of stress. I was in a high-performing store, however, it gets exhausting to manage the amount of metrics they throw at you for every category imaginable. It felt though if you succeeded at one, district/corporate management wouldn't even stop to say thanks before they then switched focus to another category you could do better in.

Simplify your reporting. I'll never forget the time as a mobile manager when I found out that upper management had reporting to show if I was utilizing reporting. Seriously? I would much rather you come in and talk to me, coach me, and inspire me, than sit behind a desk and send me an email telling me I need to view a particular report more often.
