Editing GameStop (section)

==Controversies==
In 2022, consulting firm [[Boston Consulting Group|BCG]] filed a lawsuit against GameStop as the latter allegedly denied payment of fee worth $30 million for a project. GameStop argued that it saw it is in the best interest of its stakeholders to deny payment as BCG brought little improvement to the EBITDA of the company, which the consultancy allegedly promised to improve. BCG counter argued that the company has delivered more than it promised in statement of proposal and that the quoted variable fee was based on the "projected", not realised, improvement in EBITDA, as per the contract.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2022/03/gamestop-stiffed-boston-consulting-group-on-30-million-in-fees-lawsuit-says/ | title=GameStop refused to pay $30 million bill from consulting firm, lawsuit says | date=March 24, 2022 }}</ref>

Ultimately, it turned out that BCG's lawsuit lacked the merit to be carried out in court. GameStop's claim about BCG not having delivered any value and not being owed any money for their supposed "services" was not controversial after all, and the lawsuit regarding these matters was dismissed with prejudice.<ref>{{Cite web |title=SO ORDERED AND ~Util - Terminate Civil Case – #239 in The Boston Consulting Group, Inc. v.
