Pros

To have access to the newest Nike and Under Armour gear as well as the newest golf equipment. An associate discount is nice, but it is still too small.

Cons

Management can be extremely rude and unpredictable. They don't pay well and the shifts and hours are unfavorable. There is also no stock purchase plan which is no good.

Pros

- Unlimited PTO with 401k match is awesome

Cons

- 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.
