Great Company and Friendly Atmosphere

Pros

Fun and friendly culture with Amazing discount! There is a $150 dollar limit for part timers, but can easily get approval if you need to go over. ESOP is another great benefit. Full timers are automatically invested but part timers can get ESOP as well. As long as you work 1000 hours a year for 3 years you can be fully invested.

Cons

As a part timer, company surprisingly holds high expectations for sales goals and especially visas. Makes work distasteful at times when being constantly reminded to meet goals. Sales and work hours can be terrible depending on certain months which could make work real boring.

Pros

The best thing about Scheel's is the retirement program. There are several millionaires in our company from stock alone. The people you work with are generally great. Pay is great for the retail industry.

Cons

It's a team atmosphere so there are always a few that don't pull there weight. Also it's retail, so expect to work every other weekend and holidays.
