Academy Sports + Outdoors reviews

-Bend over backwards for the customer, but won't even give you a pat on the back. -Only get feedback for what they think is wrong. -Only about money for the company. -No real chance of promotion. Work your way up to where others in the store see you are the reason for keeping your department in good shape, but management won't even call you a supervisor. -No chance to talk to corporate about the merch and what is selling. They think a computer screen gives you all the info.

Worst managers of all time. Most of the time 1 out of 4 managers there actually care about the people they work with other wise they are there to make their money and not get in trouble by corporate or the store director. I had one manager throw his employees under the bus so many times for his mistakes so that his team would take the blow and not him. also there is no point in store managers. Store director will just come by and tell you to re do it another way or do it his way. Also there is NO communication between director<managers<team leads<associates so nothing is set how the merchandise guide lines say. And don't even think about getting promoted. I started when the store opened i put everything in the store and have been there for close to 2 years, i have applied for team lead jobs number of times and every time they hire somebody outside of the store or somebody with no academy experience.
