Pros

Working in an upbeat and fun atmosphere is great. You're able to meet fun and intriguing people on a daily basis. If you're a person that loves to deal with the public its a great place. Also being in a fun segmentation like athletic footwear is great. Good product and always in the "know" about style and fashion.

Cons

Sales expectations without the proper development of stores and product. Management expects you to perform miracles with limited resources. The company also has a bad track record for on-going development of thriving stores, and neglecting those that need help. It's hard to create success without help from upper management. Also depending where you work there is no work life balance. Managers work every weekend and holiday. There is no type of rotation in place. When you want to take vacation something always seems to come up and you're not able to. There is a lot of fundamental changes that need to take place within the company.

Pros

Good discounts (30%) Nice work attire (shorts and dry fit shirts) Usually pretty good with requesting time off (if you have a decent manager) Some decent co workers

Cons

Nothing is ever good enough (sales gains, hours, accessory numbers, etc etc..) Sales mean nothing if you don't run good accessory numbers! Promotions are usually about who the DM likes, and not about who deserves it A lot of DM's play favorite and HR isn't always helpful or supportive Upper Management is pretty clueless about what goes on at the store level
