Bad morale, bad work environment comes from top management down - Golf Sales Associate DICK'S Sporting Goods Employee Review

Where to start? Management, at least at the store level, is questionable at best. Management takes advantage of hard work, uses weak reward system. I worked my butt off for 8 months, didn't miss a day, no tardies and was never given a hint of receiving a raise outside of "we'll consider getting you into a lead position" As much as management ignores hard work, they also ignore laziness. No ramifications for poor performance means that others who actually work have to do most everything in the store. Pay is crap for what you are putting up with on a daily basis. From the DM down, at least in my experience, was a lack of care for associates, a lack of willingness to actually work themselves, and just general indifference when it comes to their jobs. They made me feel unappreciated for working hard while rewarding fellow associates that showed up and sat on their phone half of a shift by ignoring their laziness.
