Pros

Can be fun to work in some departments like golf and footwear

Cons

Horrible corporate management ruined store culture and made working horrible. Refused rio give employees of multiple years pay raises and hired teenagers with no work experience for 5-10/hr more than current employees.

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.
