Typical top down, once size fits all approach

Pros

Because of turnover, hard work is recognized and promoted. Decent discount, not great. You're selling sporting goods, so if you're in a department you love, it's pretty fun. I started out in golf and it was awesome. I just talked about golf all day. Other departments, not so much.

Cons

Too much top down thinking. But if you're going to go to a corporation, you need to expect it, so just roll with it, keep your head down, and work hard.

Pros

Team atmosphere, lots of customer interaction(never the same ? twice), customer-focused.

Cons

Never sure how many hours you'll get as PT, sometimes 32+ one wk, 18 the next wk. Does not pay for experience and education!!!! Too many tasks, too few hours and associates to complete in time frame. You will get paid the same working your tail off as your fellow associate who does just enough not to get fired.
