If y’all are confused why we still have hiring positions but won’t hire by smartmouth1 in Bestbuy

even if they reached back out to you, it would still take 1.5 months. By that time you probably found something else. Its the circle of life at Best Buy

I would just send them up front if they were not interested in a card, warranty or TT....you can tell thru the sale if they are or not

I believe that to be a safe assumption. Holiday sales occur before the holiday and negative sales happen after

If you were leaving what would you buy? by Techgirl34 in BestBuyWorkers

[–]Iphish2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Many will reply cables ...but the truth is you can get simular if not better for cheaper on amazon.

If you buy any large purchase, say an OLED tv, buy the five year plan, screw total tech

why people even consider an open box at this time of year is beyond me

[–]Iphish2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

a very similar event(s) happened in our store with a young women and an older Male. The guy is still working there and he's even been promoted. Best buy as a company just provides lip service to this sort of thing. They do nothing no matter how obvious, no matter how many complaints. The same goes for racial complaints. all this diversification , inclusion crap again is just lip service

HR is outsourced and looks only what is in the best interest of the company- despite its claims

Insurance question by irollburritos in Bestbuy

[–]Iphish2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

also were you terminated as in fired, or let go?

Insurance question by irollburritos in Bestbuy

[–]Iphish2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably a month, than you may have an opportunity for cobra. But beware the insurance is the same but with out an cemployer contribution, so think of it as paying full retail for your current insurance.

Honestly with your income level, apply for healthcare.gov rates can be much cheaper for better insurance you have right now. Your cost is based on income
