Best Buy IdeaX

I have been with Best Buy for about 6 weeks now. I think it would be great for employees to be able to access the toolkit from home. I understand there are things on there that dont need to be accessed from home such as OMS or FMS but I think accessing the majority of the other applications would be a great help to the employees. I know that this week my schedule got changed and I found out tha...

I am a F.N.G. and have only been working at BBY for a little over a month now, but i think it would be great idea to allow BBY employees to access their BBY employee emails (@geeksquad.com, if that is universal, that's what mine is at least) from home. I can think of quite a few reasons why it's a good idea: they email our store's softball practice schedule updates through there, i would also e...

If you forget what you work add a way to text the computer system and have it reply with your schedule. Also if the could add a way to text in request off.

As customers, we all realize you are one of the only games in town now when it comes to electronics. However, lets not let that go to your head when it comes to customer service. I have experienced some of the worst customer service at various Best Buy locations over the past year. From the customer service counter, in-store pickup and department sales staff to cashiers, many need a serious les...

I'm not a BestBuy employee, but I've heard from friends that are that they don't receive a discount at Bestbuy.com. I think the employee discount should be expanded to the website.

It would be nice if we had a link on best buys website for employees to check employee discounts when they want, where they want. It would be just a simple page linked to best buys main page that employees click on, get sent to another page, log in with employee number and password, then check their discount by entering whatever sku they need. This would be nice because we don't get a whole lot...

I believe that will a small coffee / snack shop located in each store will provide many benefits: customers tend to walk around more with food/ drinks, employees tend to buy most of the beverages/snacks, and provide more jobs. maybe add a recyclable cups and recyclable cans around the store and you provide a great element to the Best Buy name!

I am an employee at Best Buy and I cannot tell you how many times I have had a customer with me and I bring them up to the Toolkit computer to search something on the net or check a price and the computer freezes or is just plain slow. How about an upgrade? We are an advanced electronic store. How embarrassing is it to have a computer that takes 3 minutes to load up a page on Google.

Best Buy should take the leap and be the first company to leverage Twitter/Facebook to communicate with its employee's. This would allow employee's to get the information that they need in the same way they receive all of the other news/status updates that they do today. Additionally leveraging existing tools such as Twitter/Facebook would save Best Buy investment capital that would otherwise b...

ETK available to employee's on their personal cellphones and smartphones either over 3g or wi-fi so that they do not have to wait for a kiosk.

It'd be great if... we had employee discounts. where is the love? BBY is a monter and the front line agents (instore and phone) keep theat machine running well everyday. we wouldn't need much (5%-10%perhaps) just something to remind us BBY knows we're here.

I have seen to many times when people who have worked for Best Buy makes a certain amount and gets ok raises per his/her review. However, when a new hire comes aboard, with no experience nor training, they are making the same if not more than the veteran. I think there should be a way to have an even distribution of pay and keep things fair

this app would allow employees to access certain aspects like RSS and scheduling as well as accessing the online store. I am a Magnolia specialist in store 647 in Kildeer my name is James. I would like to see that happen so that instead of leaving the customer to find out if TVs or anything is in stock, I can look it up right there in front of the customer giving them faster feedback and also f...

I think Best Buy needs to employ more knowledgable employees. It seems that every time I go in to the store I seem to know more than the person I am talking to.
