Pros

-If you're someone who wants a job in retail without doing too much, you will enjoy working here -Meet nice people -Decent discount on items (especially nice if you're into sports)

Cons

-Dealing with immature people who blame others if and when they make a simple mistake -Most customers will always act rudely towards you -It's another retail store, so even if you feel you belong there because it's a sporting goods store, you still have to put up with the managers/co-workers there who make too much of a big deal out of small, little things that happen in running the store, just like at any retail job

Pros

- Unlimited PTO with 401k match is awesome

Cons

- Performance expectations were often unclear or inconsistently communicated, Feedback was reactive instead of timely and actionable. - Leadership quality varied dramatically by manager, with limited coaching or mentorship. - Constant shifting priorities without adjusting expectations or workload. - Psychological safety was lacking, Honest communication feel risky. - Leadership messaging around culture didn't match day-to-day reality. - Process was often valued more than impact or results. - Compensation well below market, w/little flexibility during negotiations. - I felt excluded from key conversations and opportunities that were important to my success.
