Inside Best Buy: An Anonymous Store Manager Speaks About Recent Changes

bestbuyFrom the outside, we early adopters see Best Buy as a dinosaur in a dying world. The company recently announced the closing of 50 stores in the U.S. and 400 layoffs, mostly in corporate. It would be easy to say "Good riddance" and ignore the slow decline of bricks and mortar, but I wanted to speak to someone inside the company.I got a hold of a manager who wished to remain anonymous and was considered a solid and dedicated employee. I asked him what it's like inside his store right now."Basically what's going on is that we got to work and heard about the 50 store closings and we started wondering about job security. Immediately my reaction was 'Oh, crap, what am I going to do?'" he said.
