Pros

Was able to work with colleagues who were also being exploited by Footlocker.

Cons

Management has no previous management experience; as a result they over-personalize and lack finesse. Policies very strictly enforced. I was written up and actually suspended from work for several days for taking a 13 minute walk around the block during my lunch break. Footlocker is 100% about making money for corporate stockholders and hedge fund managers. Corporate office call center has "HELP WANTED" sign in front of company 365 days a year in Wausau and has very bad reputation locally.

Pros

Working here puts you right at the center of sneaker, fashion, and youth culture. You get exposure to massive global vendor partnerships (Nike, Jordan, Adidas, Puma) and high-scale enterprise operations that look great on a resume. Solid corporate benefits package including a competitive 401(k) match, health/wellness accounts, and performance-based bonuses or RSUs at leadership levels. Excellent product perks, including an employee discount across all banners (Foot Locker, Champs, Kids Foot Locker). The corporate dress code is casual and sneaker-friendly. Internal Mobility: Because of the massive global corporate footprint, there are clear paths to transition across different departments (Marketing, Supply Chain, Tech, Finance, Merchandising) along with tuition reimbursement opportunities.

Cons

In efforts to streamline costs, optimize the store fleet, and fund digital growth, the company has historically undergone structural realignments, corporate relocations, or localized layoffs, which can impact team morale and workload distribution.
