DICK'S Sporting Goods reviews

-Horrible management. Micromanaged you, never had a good attitude, always played favorites, never recognized any hard work any employee did -The attendance system is so bad. You are allowed 8 points. If you show up late even by one minute, it's a point. No call no show, it's 3 points. If you call off without anyone to fill your shift (which they have over 75 employees on hand at my Dicks, you could find another employee) you get a point. If you get up to 8 points, you're fired and each point when you get it takes 6 MONTHS to fall off. - Employees are a joke. I've never worked with more unpleasant people. You either work with a bunch of 17 year olds who are lazy and never do anything, or, you are working with a bunch of 40-50 year olds who never had any other aspirations or goals except to work at a Dicks Sporting Goods. Everyone had horrible attitudes and started drama for no reason. -HR is also a joke. So many issues, my fellow employees called for and they word for word said, "There's nothing I can do for you, you have to figure it out for yourself." Don't even bother calling HR to get anything resolved. I've never seen them help with any situation. -I could go on and on.

Will work you into the ground without so much as a thank you. District managers play favorites on who gets promoted, and will hire outside the company instead of promoting within. Most managers stay in the office, bash people who work, and don’t punish the ones that don’t. The freight system is a disaster also. Multiple trucks in one week, only to send you the same item that you already have tons on backstock. They have cut hours and don’t hire new folks, so you end up doing a job that needs 3 people, alone. No vacation time until you have been full time for one year. So even if you have been working 35 hours a week (full time by IRS definition) for 6 months, and then get full time, you will still wait a year to get vacation. While you are doing this, you will watch the managers take 3-4 vacations a year.
