Investigations by The Weekly Vision reveal that all is not well at most of branches within Nairobi of Text Book Centre. According to well-placed sources, Text Book Centre is offering poor services as well as very poor customer service across the branches.
But it is not the clients who are suffering the most but employees. Some members of staff who talked to us on strict condition of anonymity for fear of victimization claimed that they are made to work for long hours and poorly remunerated, there is no payment of overtime. Morale of majority of Text Book Centre staff is at the lowest ebb across the branches and more so at Kijabe Street. There is no motivation.
Investigations further reveal that Text Book Centre is known to sell faulty or poor quality laptops across the branches within Nairobi and getting a replacement is a nightmare.
