Pros

Discount, fair opportunity, 50% employee discount three times a year and the usual 30% employee discount, certain atmospheres, certain managers that actually get work done, and the merchandise the company carries. Also, it has many branches including Lady’s foot locker, kids foot locker, foot action, champs, six:02, eastbay which are eligible for your employee discount as well.

Cons

Outdated technology. Assistant managers, especially in smaller volume stores, are given a lot of work/hours for little pay. Short staffed a lot of the times, outdated stores, A LOT of shipment that comes into smaller stores while only one person is working; meaning, you have to start the shipment, while watching the floor, making sales, and ringing people up while being the only person on the clock.

Pros

Working here puts you right at the center of sneaker, fashion, and youth culture. You get exposure to massive global vendor partnerships (Nike, Jordan, Adidas, Puma) and high-scale enterprise operations that look great on a resume. Solid corporate benefits package including a competitive 401(k) match, health/wellness accounts, and performance-based bonuses or RSUs at leadership levels. Excellent product perks, including an employee discount across all banners (Foot Locker, Champs, Kids Foot Locker). The corporate dress code is casual and sneaker-friendly. Internal Mobility: Because of the massive global corporate footprint, there are clear paths to transition across different departments (Marketing, Supply Chain, Tech, Finance, Merchandising) along with tuition reimbursement opportunities.

Cons

In efforts to streamline costs, optimize the store fleet, and fund digital growth, the company has historically undergone structural realignments, corporate relocations, or localized layoffs, which can impact team morale and workload distribution.
