Has high temperature grease been applied to the ears of the pads where they touch the calipers (isolates the pads, so when the pad vibrates the resulting noise can't be transmitted to the caliper).
The Dealer did it (BMW). Stock pads. I have no idea about your other questions. But I can check it out.

If you paid to have it done, just take it back and tell them it is squealing. If they didn't replace the rotors when they did the pads, then they should have and you may be charged additional for more parts. If they did replace the rotors then they should consider it labour warranty/redo, since new pads and rotors should not squeal.
