This thread is for info about potential Di-k's layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?
When are they going to lay off ppl? I want to volunteer
Anyone heard any news on lay off or furlough? I hate this place because of cr-p that's going on. I reported to HR and of course they wanted to smooth it out. Lol I want to leave but bound to their stupid relocation contract. Does anyone know... — read more
Is there any 2022 lay off?
I'm a recent hire at HQ and I really hate the job. It's very toxic and political. Unfortunately I moved from out of state and bounded to relocation repayment clause. I wish I get laid off. Does anyone know whether lay off is coming?
DSG earnings report is tomorrow
$3.54 seems attainable.
Peloton vs DSG - Very Different Public Reaction
I love that those people laid off at Peloton are getting help from the community at large and media coverage about their situation. And to see so many Peloton employees post about wanting to help their team members that were let go was actually... — read more
Record second-quarter profit and sales
Raise your hand if you think this will affect the employees positively in any way. Yeah, I didn't think so. This will benefit shareholders and those at the top. Us mere mortals who actually made all those sales happen will get an 'attaboy, now get... — read more
Eight months since I was let go
It's been eight months since this company decided to show me the f—ing door after fifteen years of exemplary performance. And for what? Not because there was no need for my position but because they wanted to replace me with somebody cheaper. They... — read more
D--k's Layoffs 2021
This is a generic discussion thread to capture comments about potential D–k's Layoffs 2021? Any news or rumors?
Closings?
Makes no sense to me, but I've heard from somebody that we might be looking at some closings soon. Is there a chance this is not utter b—s—?
email out to their customers asking for workers.
Surprised me when it stated they are looking for 9000 employees. How many DSG stores are there?
All the signs of circling the drain are here.
No doubt about it. All the signs of circling the drain are here.
More messes
Technology just reorged, and it’s a disaster. Some roles eliminated, some leaders are actually being asked to apply for non-leadership roles. Design tossed around like it doesn’t matter And given to product management. New roles (scrum master?!?)... — read more
The goal is to eliminate higher paid employees
THE ANSWER HERE IS a SAD but obvious ploy to eliminate long term older people and / or higher paid people... and in my department primarily men over 40. The sad part is to get it under the cover of Covid 19 as well as under cover of age... — read more
More cuts incoming
I've heard we're looking at more cuts in July, is this true?
What's the point?
What's the point of laying somebody off and immediately posting their position as available for hire? I'd understand if I was a top earner, but I'm in the middle of the pack. There are so many people who earn more than I did and they are still... — read more
So many lies
When there were layoffs a few years ago, Ed said it was the saddest day in his career, and he’d never do it again. The company never fully recovered. And then they choose a pandemic, with massive job losses and a terrible financial market, to... — read more
From a former employee
Right as the pandemic started and DSG furloughed almost everyone, Lauren Hobart wrote an impassioned piece on LinkedIn about how sad she was and how DSG would come back stronger than ever, blah, blah, blah. There were 1600 reactions to her post, and... — read more
More to come
Don't get too comfortable, this is far from over. Now that the layoffs floodgates are open, don't expect them to stop any time soon. If you are smart, you'll start looking for a new job right now. Nobody is safe here anymore...
I worked in the Corporate office for over 14 years...
I worked in the Corporate office for over 14 years, furloughed in April. We were told the goal is to bring EVERYONE back- total c-ap. I don't know how many across the board were let go yesterday, but they did a great job ruining many of our lives... — read more
More layoffs today
More layoffs at corporate happening today
Major furloughs at corporate
For those wondering - yes, D–k's Sporting Goods is laying off people. More then half of the corporate employees were shown the door yesterday. More will probably follow.
Next Phase
I'm guessing furloughs at the best for most store + some corporate positions starting next week. They were only prepared for stuff to be closed thru the 7th. After that "difficult decisions would need to be made" They already cut almost all... — read more
D--k's Sporting Goods Furloughs
Is D–k's doing furloughs like other companies. If yes, how many of you are afraid you'll not be able to be back to your jobs.
Coronavirus Store Closures
Will there be layoffs when we go back?
Full time still 30 hours?
I worked at D–k's from early 1996 - late 2002 full time and part time until early 2005. Got a new full time job when they were "improving the financials" to go public. Left completely when they cut me to just a few hours a week. Before that, I... — read more
How many people work at D--k's?
Post any information you have about the total headcount (I know it changes all the time). How about the main office at Coraopolis?
Under Armour and Yeti?
Wondering how Under Armour and Yeti has been selling in your stores?
What's going on?
I was looking around and found that even more D--k's Sporting Goods stores are closing - West Mifflin and Springfield ones being among the latest. What's going on here? Why are we seeing such an uptick in closing stores? I'd lie if I said I wasn't... — read more
Another store closing
D--k’s Sporting Goods in Springfield, Ohio will be no more as of March 16. https://www.springfieldnewssun.com/news/local/d--k-sporting-goods-springfield-closing/lN3XxBvdzfk1vjQzdOmF3J/
Mr. Stack
Here is a suggestion for reconceptulization... Close down the largely underperforming F&S, keep the moderate performing F&S and combo stores. Reduce skus and change all d---s lodges to F&S mini stores comparible to a cabalas or mom/pop shop look and... — read more
Another store closing
One more D--k's Sporting Goods store is shuttering, this one is in Yorkville. Looks like we learn about one new closing once a month. I guess that's not too bad considering we have a total of over 800 stores... — read more
D--k's Sporting Goods closing York store
Anybody knows if employees were offered jobs in nearby stores? The D--k's Sporting Goods store at Route 30 and Kenneth Road in York is closing Sunday, according to a sign in the store's lobby... — read more

Are all the stores closing lodge?
Richmond Stony Point store closing
I just found out D--k's Sporting Goods store at Stony Point Shopping Center in Richmond is closing. I'm trying to figure out if this is an isolated incident or if there were more closings in past weeks or months we haven't been hearing about. Anybody... — read more
D--k's Politics
A sh--ton of politics in the corporate office - watch your back - you will be stabbed. I will jet ASAP - cannot stand this any more.
D--k's Layoffs 2018
If someone asks you about layoffs do not discuss it - just ignore the question - the HR is tracking email traffic and website you surf, at least here in corporate in Coraopolis.
D--k's Sporting Goods laid off wrong people
The lay offs this past May in NM almost all were high performers. They gutted a whole department regardless of how good the employees were. I wondered why didnt they go through various departments and lay off the non performers and integrate the hard... — read more
They did this to look good for shareholders quickly with the quarter release!
I'm surprised they don't cut the fat in all their budgets before cutting the people. This company drops funds on the most useless things, money down the drain without a thought. Yet thinks the only way to solve the issue is by cutting high... — read more
