Pros

Academy Sports and Outdoors was very close to my house so the commute was very short and I did not encounter very much traffic. Co-workers on the same corporate hierarchy scale are easy to get along with, the majority of them still in school.

Cons

There were several cons to academy sports. First off they will not listen to you if you ask to work a certain number of hours per week. They also do not care if you are in school, they show no empathy.

Pros

The customers there were wonderful to talk to

Cons

Had to quit due to team leads aggressive attitude towards me. Also favoritism issues. I can tell they didn't like me since day 1. Today they came to me rudely about mistakes I made instead of doing it professionally. I haven't been there for long and I was still learning. I made a lot of improvements which I was really happy about, but was still learning. As much as I liked working there, the team lead was very rude/unprofessional towards me and it was so bad to the point I had to leave. The same team lead followed me outside and said "good" that I was leaving (in front of customers too). I was improving a lot in the position, I want to hear constructive criticism, but not like this. I was hoping to grow with the store and the company but unfortunately its not meant to be. This could've been 100% been prevented if only they would came to me professionally about this and I would be more than happy to fix any mistakes and do better in the future. But if this is how they treat their coworkers I do not wish to be a part of that toxic culture and headspace. Do better.
