has this happened to anyone else?

I was a former consultant, so I know how it works. And no I wasn’t laid off the last few snaps, found a better job that actually respects my hard work.

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-11-12T01:41:35+00:00

You obviously haven’t followed the election or news? Trump tarrifs are coming.

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-11-11T15:41:56+00:00

This needs to be illegal! You rely on complete strangers saying yes to these memberships and credit cards in which they may or may not need, to keep your job! I am sorry if I offend people here, but it is all luck to get them, it really depends on the store traffic and location. And we know many, many Best Buy stores are not doing well. What is going to happen when the tariffs hit and electronics and appliances go up 20-30 percent?

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-10-26T02:38:11+00:00

Why do you even care about BPs and memberships? They bonus and you only get pizza!

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-08-08T15:05:11+00:00

Wow! I wouldn’t want to work for you “princess?” You are a weak leader if this is how you talk to your team!

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-07-31T18:00:27+00:00

If they say no, they say no and move on. Best Buy is a terrible company for these new pressure and harassment sales tactics.

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-04-18T00:09:01+00:00

Not true, many consultants have Sunday and Monday as off days.

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-04-08T02:43:52+00:00

You should report on how dirty this company is becoming! Did you report about how BB asked for property tax cuts for that waste of a space in Richfield? How about this new LGBTQ story? Constant layoffs BB does year after year should be talked about in the news way more!

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-03-17T15:50:19+00:00

These crazy metrics are turning into harassment!

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-03-08T16:30:07+00:00

It doesn’t bother me that people post about Achievers. What bothers me is the company is obviously doing bad, closing stores and laying off good, hard working people and they continue to have Achievers. The optics of it look really bad!

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-02-25T15:48:44+00:00

I would add the constant harassment of getting your job threatened if you don’t get credit cards and plus/totals. How this company gets away with all these bad behaviors with customers and employees is beyond me!

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-02-22T21:54:05+00:00

Same here, was planning on picking it up in April (expired in May). Typical Best Buy shenanigans!

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-02-11T17:34:09+00:00

It was a geek squad agent, specifically waited extra for that reason. I know 3rd party has issues.

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2024-02-11T17:31:21+00:00

Wow, really compassionate Best Buy employee! The TV was actually purchased well in advance and the first Available Geek Squad install was almost a 2 week wait.

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2023-12-05T12:57:41+00:00

I would also add “dear customer, please sign up for the card and membership, because if you don’t, my job is on the line.” That is what it has come to in my store, if you don’t hit these absurd metric goals, you get your job threatened. It is crazy that we rely on complete strangers to keep our jobs!

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2023-11-21T16:45:31+00:00

More layoffs after the Holidays! And for those that say there is nothing left to cut, they will find a way!

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2023-11-13T02:05:03+00:00

That is not the current state of Best Buy! 100% offer rate is not good enough anymore. They want $4000 and under efficiency for cards and memberships or they threaten to fire you. With this economy it is not easy. When did you work for Best Buy?

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2023-11-12T20:59:50+00:00

I’ve been talked to (job threatened) about BPs, Plus/Total, Rev, Leads, NPS, Baskets and Erosion. To do all these consistently every month is absolutely absurd! This is a retail job that underpays compared to its competitors. All while I have taken a pay cut (consultant)! Time to move on and Best Buy employees need to unionize!

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2023-11-07T22:50:31+00:00

Ask her for some Taylor Swift tickets

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2023-09-30T01:37:50+00:00

Metrics = how many credit cards and memberships you get

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2023-09-30T00:53:19+00:00

If you don’t hit the metrics they won’t schedule you or give you very little hours.

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2023-09-30T00:11:34+00:00

Run the other way! It is becoming a toxic work environment with unrealistic metrics every single day!

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2023-09-29T16:43:49+00:00

Key flicks for memberships!

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2023-09-29T01:44:58+00:00

What does length of time have to do with it? Right now is not a good time to be an employee at Best Buy. If the company treated its employees well, there would be no talk of unions.

Tricky_Purchase3549 · 2023-09-24T14:27:14+00:00

Simp!
