Best Buy reviews

The morning meetings were a drag. Having to be there at 6:30am Saturday morning, usually once a month, was not fun. Granted, the managers tried to make it as painless as possible, because let's face it, I don't think they wanted to be there either. Meetings usually consisted of store performance review (numbers, data, etc...), employee awards, new product rollouts, training.

Being primarily a retailer, Best Buy can often be a source of frustration for Geek Squad employees. General Managers at the store level usually put employees on a career path within the company at the services manager position, which usually means your manager will know a lot about retail and not much about IT or the service field. Add to that your manager is likely going to be very motivated to get business results from this position in an effort to use the services manager position as a stepping stone to greater things. As a result, you can expect some struggles with your manager, who will likely approach everything the same way they would if you were selling dishwashers.
