Geek Choice - Another unhappy employee! Bad business practices and they don't pay! Nationwide
I've been working with Geek Choice since January and everything was fine until March. In March they lost people in the office (for reasons they won't talk about) and suddenly I wasn't getting paid. I submitted email after email to Matthew Mackey, the manager, and was told all kinds of platitudes and lies about how I would be paid the next coming Friday. A month later they still haven't paid.
When I was hired we quickly were discussing moving me out to Boston. They wanted me to come out for 30 days as a trial run and go from there. At first they were talking about paying my first month's rent and I would handle all other expenses. When it came down to it they backed off that line of discussion and claimed they would only help me find a place, not pay for my trial in Boston. Joe claimed it was a miscommunication, but that was a lie.
So far everything they've told me has been a lie, even when he claimed this past Friday that I would be paid in full. Don't do business with them and if you want to be paid then don't work for them!
