Title pretty much says it all. I’m wondering if I should max out my Geonosian squad, or transition to another of my weaker squads. I have the start of a Padmé squad and I have Palp/Thrawn. I’m kind of all over the place at the moment.

You don't want to spread yourself too thin, but you also want roster depth. So don't work on a bunch of weak teams simultaneously; pick one, but once that one is good enough to do what you need them to do you can start working on others.
My answer to that is also, "it depends." Yes, GBA and spy are worth g13, but it depends on where you are at in the game. Early game, g11 or 12 may be enough before you start working on some core squads. Maybe there is a point in early game where you could stonewall in GAC with geos, but you still want a rounded roster to be able to win. I guess I will let others answer based on their experience in that.
Based on you profile, my personal opinion would be to leave them at 11/12 until you have more squads. I'm not a fan of going to g13/relics before you have several g12 squads, or squads ready to g12. There are more and more accounts these days that I would consider top heavy. But I also don't play on the new player landscape, so I recognize there may be increased pressure to relic early. Again, others may have different answers for you.
Do whatever it takes to stay in top-5 in fleet arena. If you drop to 6th you lose 100 crystals or more daily. A fast Executrix is essential in order to reach the ultimate before your opponent. You can improve instantly by training all Tarkin's skills (he's far behind) and equipping 5-dot level 15 mods (mod stats / sets don't really matter for that purpose). Also give him any gear you can spare. Your Geo pilots are also missing a 5-dot level 15 mod here and there. SF and Spy are very close to g11. Don't stop at g10. Your investment in geo pilots will still pay off after you unlock Malevolence. Furthermore, your geonosians are close to being eligible for the Wat mission in TB. You should at least get them ready for that.
For squad arena your Padme team is a better long term investment than your geonosians. A strong Padme team will be viable until GLs begin to take over the top ranks. JKA, Ahsoka and GK are essential to the team.
On a side note:
You may as well start buying Logray and Dengar shards in the guild shop. They will help you greatly when you eventually want to unlock Chewie and 3P0. Buying Rex shards with spare resources will also help you in the future.
For geos, I would relic geo brood alpha and g12 the rest. That will get you the wat mission and a pretaut in a pinch.
If you want to do the special mission in geo tb or plan to continue to use geos in fleet or gac, spy isn't a bad candidate for relics.
For GAC, I recommend including some teams that have characters that can underdog or solo. Empire is a good early team for this reason as is Darth revan. I routinely use Vader, malak, and darth revan to solo or two man teams.
You can probably do something similar with a padme but I'm not sure it'll split too well since the team relies heavily on her leadership.
