Tasteless managers that only care about bottom line and poor management style with no interpersonal or people skills - Assistant Manager Big 5 Sporting Goods Employee Review

Pros

None. This company has a very poor Outlook and a very negative corporate management style

Cons

For starters very low pay horrible hours too much work to get done and not enough time allotted I personally watched this company fire a perfectly good manager and not tell him why they were firing him rather than giving him excuses to cover their rear ends true story. Not to mention not enough hours to go around part-time employees get 10 hours a week

Pros

Most employees were really fun to work with, life/work balance was great, taught me good life skills, good first job for work experience.

Cons

Barely got scheduled (pretty sure my location was way over employed), occasional rude and entitled costumers (especially during the holidays), could get very slow and boring at times, sketchy area, overal, not a great job if you're looking for something that pays well.
