DICK'S Sporting Goods

Is this your company?

At times very overwhelming due to the limited staffing. - Anonymous employee DICK'S Sporting Goods Employee Review

Pros

Can be a fun atmosphere if done properly.

Cons

Big box stores should always have a night shift staff to process and clean the store accordingly. Dick's does not. It is because of this decision to go without a night staff that the day shift associates are bombarded with expediting large amounts of freight and ever-changing priorities.In the end, customer service takes a hit. Also, a cashier at Lowe's makes more money an hour than a Dick's employee that receives the online training and supposedly is "certified" to sell detailed and technical products such as running shoes or a treadmill.

Pros

- Unlimited PTO with 401k match is awesome

Cons

- Performance expectations were often unclear or inconsistently communicated, Feedback was reactive instead of timely and actionable. - Leadership quality varied dramatically by manager, with limited coaching or mentorship. - Constant shifting priorities without adjusting expectations or workload. - Psychological safety was lacking, Honest communication feel risky. - Leadership messaging around culture didn't match day-to-day reality. - Process was often valued more than impact or results. - Compensation well below market, w/little flexibility during negotiations. - I felt excluded from key conversations and opportunities that were important to my success.
