Pros

Continuous exposure to sporting/fitness equiptment and people who typically share that interest. Although Im parttime, I am able to have payroll deductions in order to have dental and health coverage (limited). The management team is awesome.

Cons

There is quite a bit of product to deal with and not quite enough information provided, so I spend a little personal time learning about wheel berrings and ect, but it interests me anyway. More often than I'd like, some kid is trying to steal product and legally there is little we can do. Very sales driven, but sometimes details like changing burnt out store lights are overlooked.

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.
