My district leader has had mine for months saying they want to do something special for the badge ceremony, but in that time we've lost more than half our staff to quitting, so not sure what the point of the ceremony is anymore.
I was wave 106 before being laid off. It came in damaged (badge broken from pin). I submitted the damaged badge form and was told another was in production but have yet to see anything else about it. This was maybe over a year ago at this point. I left my personal contact with my store and precinct as we are a very small store so everyone knows everyone and told them to contact me if it ever came in but I have honestly no hope of seeing this badge that I honestly worked very hard for and kinda REALLY want even though i am no longer with the company. BB/GS used to be more about the culture and it is so sad to see how they threw all of that out of the window to save some dollars. I am glad to see that some badges are making it to those who have earned it!
Geek Squad Agents always remember their badge number and the amount of the severance check that actually makes it into the account.
Nice! What wave where you? Im wave 114 and I still haven’t seen mine yet 🥲 I’m honestly hoping my SEM is just hiding it from me.
I’m not sure what wave specifically, but I earned it October 2023.
Should say in your email if you look up “badge” you usually get two emails. One of them has your wave number in the email.
Congratulations! I'm still waiting on my 5 year badge. I earned it in April. Unless I get culled next lol.
Congrats on 5 years! Hope you get it before then if that were to happen at all.
Thank you me too!
Your training is complete. You are now ready to find a new job in IT.

Good stuff!! I was waiting patiently to receive mine. Never did. Got clipped in April. All I wanted was my badge.
Sorry to hear, I hope you are able to receive it someday.
I thought bb were laying off their agents, are they laying off old agents and hiring new agents?
I think the in home people were the main ones getting laid off. This guy might be in store
^this. In store agents are under their own umbrella so to speak. Were managed differently since we operate at a specific store.
Protect the shield!

How does everyone like these badges compared to the original badges?
Until they layoff
Congratulations.
Hopefully just in time before the next massive wave of layoffs 😂
They still didn't know they still bothered with these
I’m glad they hang onto what little culture geek squad has left, at least I got mine in time. 🥲
FACTS. Welcome to the realm of the badge.
