This was by far one of the best companies I have ever worked for. - and I truly miss working there. They made you feel as though you are family here, and like some of the other reviews said - as long as you do your work this job was really rewarding. They had weekly, monthly, and yearly contests to win extra money or prizes - fully paid trips to Cancun, $1000 cash, 70' flat screen TVs etc. It was awesome!!
Shame on Glassdoor for allowing these bad reviews -
For those of you saying they favored certain employees, it wasn't favoritism - it was the fact that those employees did their job, and brought happy energy to work. No one wants to work with someone who grumbles all the time - you're paid to do your job.... the fact that they threw in extra perks was the cherry on top, yet everyone takes it for granted. The pay WAS competitive - managers at Best Buy only make $18 WITH NO COMMISSION..... Also, if you are just standing around not doing any sales, not bringing in any profit then how on earth do you expect someone to reward you for that by giving you more money? In life, there aren't any handouts.
Those of you that said there wasn't any training: If you weren't being trained in your store - did you reach out to your area managers? What about someone from backend? Stop complaining when y'all did nothing to TRY and make it better. Whenever I had a gripe with something, management would either resolve it or explain why things the way they were.
