Pros

Good discount but I wouldn't know what because they never told me how to purchase using it

Cons

All the managers are basically young adults who don't know how to lead. They'll be one or two good ones, but the rest are not dependable.

We appreciate your honesty! We definitely want every employee to understand and be able to use the perks we offer, so not getting clear guidance on the discount is something we’ll take back. Manager development is a big focus for us, and your feedback reinforces how important it is to keep investing in it. Thank you!

Pros

Working here puts you right at the center of sneaker, fashion, and youth culture. You get exposure to massive global vendor partnerships (Nike, Jordan, Adidas, Puma) and high-scale enterprise operations that look great on a resume. Solid corporate benefits package including a competitive 401(k) match, health/wellness accounts, and performance-based bonuses or RSUs at leadership levels. Excellent product perks, including an employee discount across all banners (Foot Locker, Champs, Kids Foot Locker). The corporate dress code is casual and sneaker-friendly. Internal Mobility: Because of the massive global corporate footprint, there are clear paths to transition across different departments (Marketing, Supply Chain, Tech, Finance, Merchandising) along with tuition reimbursement opportunities.

Cons

In efforts to streamline costs, optimize the store fleet, and fund digital growth, the company has historically undergone structural realignments, corporate relocations, or localized layoffs, which can impact team morale and workload distribution.
