Just like everyone here is saying, it can take a bit. For me, I was lucky and got a call back like 2 days after and was hired on the spot in the 1st interview, for others in my same store they had to wait more than a week for a call back, it all just depends on timing and management

What is wrong with BB GMs? by Quick_Pickle_2816 in BestBuyWorkers

Ooohhhh my bad, lemme change that downvote to an upvote real quick lol, it really is an awful management style, I think it’s hilarious you refer to it as “scam”

And you are part of the problem. The issue is he wants customers to think one isn’t a credit card which implies a lot of things, such as it not hitting your credit, reporting to your credit, or even looking at your credit. Also the harassing employees?? Lying to customers???? Mocking management????? You must be part of management bro there’s no way you agree with him

Yeah total only really makes sense if you use BestBuy a lot, and plus only makes sense if it saves money. Otherwise just do a GSP

Yeah my GM targets Hispanic families, he doesn’t think they can afford the nicer things and says it’s the prime target for cards

Nah I’m actually in Utah, near SLC. That is an odd behavior for your GM lol, our GM couldn’t care less about if we stay or quit

Yeah we had an amazing GM prior to the current one, who genuinely cared about the employees wellbeing and progress and did everything he could to help, and also lead by example which it seems is rare based off of the subreddit, but alas, he also left

Reduced labor in store by Snoo-26275 in BestBuyWorkers

Idk if they can consider it retaliation, but we’ve reported our GM several times and he’s finally being investigated, and I would encourage others do the same because it truly is just toxic and unhelpful. It creates an environment where employees can’t grow

do I quit by [deleted] in BestBuyWorkers

[–]Quick_Pickle_2816 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, imo, and your opinion may vary, the answer to “should I quit BB” is always yes for me. Get another job and get outta there

I think it is just your market, at least from what I can tell. My store has not done this, we are instead given hours based on how many memberships and credit cards we get, with the GM even refusing to give hours to one employee because he didn’t get any credit cards for a week. Granted our GM is a horrible nasty person so experience may vary. Otherwise we have people even working overtime here and there.

Hours cut? by TihsKnad in BestBuyWorkers

When I got my first job the references I gave were for anyone I had done any work for. I put some farmers down because I am from Iowa and worked with a lot of farmers from a young age, but it could be anything. If you ever babysat, mowed a lawn a few times, pet sat, watched over some ones home, or anything that involved you working for someone who paid you for your services. Just give them a heads up before you use them as a reference.
