In the beginning, everyone loves working at EB Games.
The dream job: being involved with the games industry, with like-minded people who have the same hobbies, enjoy the same things, speak the same language. A place where everyone loves video games. Of course they do, why else would they be working at EB Games?
Kotaku AU spoke to a number of people for whom working at EB was a dream job.
That dream job would turn into a nightmare.
JB Hi-Fi And EB Games Australia Are Getting Limited PS5 Stock This Week
EB Games Australia has advised that 19 stores will be closed across Australia in total.
“Like all businesses, we are constantly evaluating our property portfolio to ensure that our stores mix is in-line with the ever changing retail landscape,” an EB Games Australia representative told Stevivor in a statement.
All Aussie launch prices of Daemon X Machina at all major including Jb Hi-fi, Eb games and more.
So, I'm really curious as to why North America can't get these collector's editions...
It feels like a real slap to the face, honestly.
Maybe the off the clock thing is an Australian EB issue. I ASM'ed an EB Games store that was later bought out by Gamestop in the States. I know I would have lost my job if I ever asked one of our employees to work off the clock.
That said, EB Games/Gamestop is still a horrible company. Corporate doesn't give two s***s about their employees and harass the hell out of the customers. I won't even shop there anymore.
That's terrible to hear about this rape case. I hope justice is served!
Must be an Australian thing. I worked at an EB in the States years ago. Never ran into any issues like the ones in the article. Midnight launches were indeed paid events and the DM/RM all acted professionally. It's a minimum wage job, it's not like you can't simply walk out and find a job for the same pay.
So glad I do not shop here anymore.
