Pros

Dicks Sporting Goods was good at working with my school and volunteer schedule.

Cons

It seems that management never talks to each other. They let many people slide by who should not be working for the company. Finally, they do not have their priorities in line with helping customers. Many times Dicks Sporting Good will have extremely long lines when there are multiple employees in the store. Need to learn how to focus attention on customers and not on doing tasks all of the time.

Pros

It's fun to interact with athletes and help them achieve their goals.

Cons

As with any part-time job in this economy today, hourly pay for part-timers is so much lower that the cost of living. Just to cover my internet access each month (which is now considered an essential living cost), it takes 6 hours of work. For the minimal increase in hourly pay if I took a full-time job at DSG, I wouldn't be able to cover even 70% of my living expenses (housing, food, transport, internet, phone). It's a sobering thought as we navigate this country's massive wealth disparity.
