Sales Associate - Anonymous employee DICK'S Sporting Goods Employee Review

Easily can move up if you are willing to learn and take constructive criticism to help you grow

Hours kinda bad but it is retail so what can you expect

- Unlimited PTO with 401k match is awesome

- 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.
