Face the Facts

Bbby is going out of business! Anyone who thinks differently needs to look around.

RVP’S

So when are all of the RVP’S going to HR and find out why ME makes 3 times as much as them in the same position. Oh wait because his last name is Eisenberg. Keep stirring the pot people. Maybe ST will find his way to the door finally.

BBB is just laughable

This is the same old junk everyday! The only changes made were you cut your dept mgrs and look st these nasty stores now. Any really good employee knows the difference and should get out and move on. I was a dept Mgr for years and yes got cut BUT I... — read more

Tax Exempt

Company or the states need to crack down. No way people are using 90% of the things they buy for the name on the forms. End that scam and pay your taxes

Focus!

Everyone needs to focus on their job and making the store you work in better! I am a ASM with more than 15 years in. You either learn to evolve with the times if you want to be successful, or find a job elsewhere.
