I can't wait till these Squad members fall. I was with BB for 10 years through upper management and I'll tell ya, because of my battles with corporate BB over issues just like this, being a whistle blower gets you fired, period. I terminated 2 squad members at my store at a time when I caught them red handed doing this stuff, worked with upper HR control and we terminated them. 2 months later the 2 guys showed up as rehires at 2 different BB's, same position, and after I raised hell and found out what went on, I was told they were rehired by the same corporate HR person whom cleared me to fire them, only to be rehired because the employees claim, "discrimination"???????? WHAT?
This is such an evil empire.....I've never purchased anything there nor will I ever again. But with respect to "Geek Squad", they were a very good company before BB purchased and outsourced them. Speaking with the CEO of the Squad, these were issues and a lot others which came up during their acquisition in which I had even voiced concerns of due to how BB had tried this before and failed due to thousands of
confidentiality breaches as well as law suits. Geek Sqd had also been bid on at the time by Circuit City but lost to BB's capitalism and market share. I know, I was a share holding in this merging. There is a 10 year term with Geek Sqd. and BB and I know before I left, GS will pull out soon. There was no contract renewel...............
This all happened after the acquisition when BB started throwing regular employees into the mix with no concern for lawsuits...
Now they're paying for it!!!! Yea!!!!
