Pros

Discount on product, thats it. The only thing good about working for Nike is the discount. Is that 20 words? Oh and flexible scheduling.

Cons

New hires get paid more than employees already working there, managment is a bunch of idiot kids with no leadership experience. Back of house couldnt pass a health code unless a corporate visit was coming. Always a fire hazard in my store. Only way to advance is if you rat someone out or sleep with one of the coaches/specialist. Total disrespect, ran like a sweatshop with only 10% of the employees having insurance. Give out no hours if you're part time but managers get a looooooot of OT every shift. This job is really poop with glitter on it.

Pros

Working at Nike was a great experience overall. The company culture is energetic, inclusive, and team-oriented. Management encourages employees to embody the Nike brand and provides opportunities for growth within retail and corporate roles. Employee discounts are excellent and make it easy to enjoy the products you sell. The work environment is fast-paced, especially during launches and holiday seasons, which keeps the job engaging. I also appreciated working alongside passionate teammates who genuinely cared about customer service and creating a positive shopping experience.

Cons

Retail schedules can be inconsistent and often include nights, weekends, and holidays. During peak periods, the store can become extremely busy, which can be stressful when balancing customer service expectations with operational tasks. Advancement opportunities can vary depending on store location and management structure.
