I’ve worked at Di-ks for 8 years and in that time the changes have been like a roller coaster !!!!
From firing of quality managers to replacing them with unqualified ones.
The workload is crazy they are not reasonable at all . When you do bring up issues that need to be taken care of , they yes you to death but do nothing .
They post a sign if you see something say something and when I did, nothing was done.
I’ve seen the stock in the midteens and when Covid hit, it was a perfect store for the environment. The stock went through the roof. This company is typical of other big corporations. They only care about the stockholders and their bottom line which on some levels I understand, but I think it has gone to their head. Upper management is just unrealistic..
Back room and the stockrooms are an accident waiting to happen and they do nothing about it. They employ younger people pay them less and go out of there way to not pay Benefits .
The psychological test that they have given the employees that have been working there are all a smoke screen to lower their overhead.
Cut salaries get rid of quality people all for the obvious reason $$$$$ sad really
They don’t Care about the employees at all … God forbid you were a handicap person and had to move your wheelchair in that store. My store was in Florida.
Somehow, they get away with not giving a handicap person enough space I thought it was a law. They just care about stuffing the store with as much merchandise as possible. I’m guessing the state looks the other way. Kind of ridiculous and sad.
The company is all smoking mirrors .
The only care about the customer because they spend money .
Getting back to something I said earlier, it’s a dangerous place to work and no matter what you say nothing‘s ever fixed so in the end I did get hurt. I also witnessed other people getting hurt.
When I was injured, the managers did not know what to do. Didn’t know anything about the paperwork or where to send me. I sat there for two hours and they didn’t know what they were doing in the end. They had to call other stores so with all the training that they give you and it’s a lot I believe all of that is done just to cover themselves for any liability, but they don’t bother to train the managers
I could go on and on about the things that are wrong with that company. I’ve seen it all, but I don’t think there’s enough space for me to put everything down that’s wrong with them. They bought footlocker because they had so much money supposedly because they wanted a European presence. Just not a place I would recommend to work looks good. They get all the kids to work there 18 to 22-year-olds because it’s a sports store. That’s a funny comment because it’s become a clothing and shoe store with the out of fringes of the store being sports and fishing. They recently because of the psychological test that almost nobody passed got rid of a guy that I believe opened the store originally high-quality individual who did anything. They asked them to left the sweat on the floor and how did they pay him back offer them a deduction and salary stay full-time or take a severance package it’s highly insulting and if they cared at all about the customer, that’s a guy that should still be working there he was very well liked by the customers. He was intelligent articulate and learned everything that he possibly could in that store yet he was just a number very sad. Di-k should be ashamed of themselves.
