Pros

Not much really going on in the "pro" department. The other employees I worked with were decent enough people, but there aren't many redeeming qualities about working at Dick's Sporting Goods.

Cons

Management was terrible and company policies were out of whack and too stringent. Pay was also equally bad. This location used to be a Chick's Sporting Goods before the buyout and was much better run.

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.
