Pros

great headquarters, huge gym, bank and Starbucks in building

Cons

HUGE disconnect between upper management and the people actually doing the work. Lots and lots of VP and Director levels delegating work to a minimal staff. Company would prefer to bring in outside talent rather than promote their own. Happens in many departments. Keep in mind that I've been with the company for over 8 years! I've given it a fair shot with many management changes, but sadly, I feel its my time to leave. I would like to advance in my career and Dicks is not the place to do it.

Pros

Employee Discount Opportunity to provide customers an experience in which they can be confident in buying a new shoe for style, function and support-related reasons. Great selling tools, devices and display fixtures to work with

Cons

This is not really a con since I believe it is an important part of the job. Newer and current workers may need to keep up up to date and do research on products in order to be able to help customers effectively and efficiently.
