Pros

Good benefits, good salary. Most stores have a low turnover so you will work with the same people for a number of years.

Cons

Lot of hours during holiday. Upper management doesn't listen to associates as to what happens on a daily basis. Slow to react to current trends

Good solid company, World's largest sporting goods retailer and still growing. Good leadership at the top.

Very hands on, very difficult to manage associates due to labor constraints so Salaried mgrs absorb tasks. Very task oriented company.

Pros

Great company with motivational goals, great benefits, luxurious office perks (dry cleaning, gym, food court style cafeteria, etc.). The company always seems to be growing, ever expanding.

Cons

You won't get promoted if you didn't start in the MTP program. Director levels and higher don't care to understand what is really required of teams' daily tasks, or what it takes to perform said tasks. You ask for help, it will not be given, and it will reflect in the margins - and then they'll raise the margin goal and still won't give you help to meet that new goal.
