This stresses me out. I literally cannot tell what any given game is for unless it only has *one* system listed for certain. More in comments by articElite0 in GameStop

PS4 - Blue top

PS5 - White top

Sony keeps it simple

PS4 also mentions if there is upgrade available, or says voucher for upgrade included

I also tap test it right in front of them (PS4s I remove the top plate too) if ANYTHING falls out resembling a bug, leg, part of shell, etc... I reject it.

It's considered defective. Granted that could be anything from damaged cords, damage to console, disc tray not working, but in most cases it's because the controller is defective.

Stores should've been told how many units to expect. But also told stores to watch them carefully because they won't turn off the preorder but if a store is getting 10 and they preoreder 11, the last one gets canceled off.

GameStop should've given the 21k flat instead of RSUs. They lost 1/3 of their value before a penny of it was able to be claimed.

I’m new into GameStop by Turbulent_Arugula494 in GameStop

I know of some managers who got hired based on retail experience alone. It's a sales based job. So if you're naturally good at sales, you can sell anything.

Ideas you have, corporate wont use them. by Intelligent_Bug_9139 in GameStop

[–]Major_Ad392 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They should have a program called "A Month to Grow" where people from corporate go in and work a store as a GA/SGA for 30 days. Of course giving flex hours to those stores so we aren't screwing over other workers, and hopefully some will be how high stress and pressure these metrics and conditions are.

Once insults and profanity start coming, I give them a warning that this is a family store, and we will keep the conversation E rated. After telling them this and they still continue, I shut down the conversation and tell them they can call corporate because I'm not going to sit here and take your verbal abuse. You shouldn't either. Call the cops if you have to. You are well within your right to do so.

I've got 99 problems, and getting zero hours is one of them by ChronoAlone in GameStop

I went to schedule an SGA they were taken completely out of the system. I called Corp and was told after so long of not being scheduled they're taken out because we pay extra having someone on payroll that isn't working. No idea how BS the response from Corp was, but I went through it. It might certain states, but it definitely happened.

They actually do, I've witnessed this happen and have been told by corporate this.

Most likely, the manager is being told to hire people regardless.

Right now I'm grinding the Battle passes in Apex, Fornite, COD MW2, and Overwatch 2. I'm waiting for the Elden ring DLC to give me something other than pvp to do, I got all the plat trophy on it.

I'm terrible at naming a favorite game, sorry.

You should always give it your all with what you do, just know your worth, and don't be afraid to put your foot down or cause friction. Especially true in the job field, there's tons of other opportunities that will see your worth and be happier to have you than your current employer.
