      Pros

      If you are into Sports, Outdoors, or retail in general, Academy isn't the worst place to work. In my experience, most customers are easy to work with. The people who work there are, for the most part, are great. They also offer a very decent employee discount.

      Cons

      Academy upper-level leadership are running this company into the ground. They are obsessed with profit and not quality. They expect an extremely small team of Managers, Team Leaders, and Associates to do the work required of far more employees. For example, if you are a Team Leader, you do the job of at least 4 employee's and any additional requirements of a low-level supervisor. Corporate constantly cuts hours to save money and turn a profit, so expect to get few hours even if you are a full time employee.
