Pros

Around a lot of people with similar interests. I personally enjoy being around sporting goods. Decent discount. I would recommend Academy, but not long term. New ownership is getting better quality products.

Cons

Poorly managed, inconsistent schedules, minimum wage, a lot of turnover, questionable training, money is bottom line, too few employees for expectations. Insurance is awful. The business outlook more and more seems to be big money rather than taking care of employees.

Excellent benefits, and good atmosphere

Cons

Senior Team Lead job is underpaid for what is essentially a managers job with lower pay.
