Pros

If you love running and have a passion for fitness, this can be a good fit for you. It has provided a lot of opportunities to get involved in fitness communities in the Boston area. Store management is great and work vibes are generally pretty relaxed. Frequent postings about the promotional opportunity within the company

Cons

While store management is great, upper management can seem out of touch with day-to-day sales and is more focused on having workers push unnecessary products onto customers. Although there are often opportunities for growth mentioned, pay increases and increased levels of responsibility were sparsely given.

Pros

Friendly and supportive coworkers. Good environment if you're looking for a simple part-time retail job. Opportunities to learn basic customer service and retail operations.

Cons

Leadership presence on the sales floor was barren and inconsistent during busy periods, which increased the workload for frontline employees. Often felt like operational metrics and sales took priority over employee support and development. Communication from management regarding scheduling and attendance expectations was often unclear and felt impersonal. Attendance policies were enforced very strictly, with little flexibility for occasional mistakes. Limited feedback and transparency from management when workplace issues arose.
