Being a Hermans alum, I know what SA employees are going thru. Good Luck in your jb search.
We have had layoffs
It is a great company... But I've been here going on five years 1 raise and one bonus and yes we have had layoffs every since I've been here... We are not getting raises are bonus this year maybe you guys make the big bucks - but I don't I'm thankful... — read more
List of Sports Authority Stores Closing
Does someone have a list with all Sports Authority stores that will be closing?
How Sports Authority treats there people !
I think what sports authority is doing to the there long time employees and management team is very on nasty these people have family and bills also. I feel management should begin the chance to go to another store and be added to the managers list... — read more
My store is not closing.
It's not the worst company to work for. Trust me, I know they put a lot of things on us to do for the customers,and it gets tiring sometimes. They are just struggling right now,and I know they will get through whatever problems they have. I have been... — read more
I am a store employee and I have no clue what's going on with store closures
But I can tell you one thing, I hope we stay in business as I really need that income. Sports Authority has been good to me and I hope our store here in LA does not close
Love my job
Yes they are in trouble but I still have a job and love the other employees
Add all of this up and ask yourself a question – DOES SPORTS AUTHORITY HAVE FUTURE?
The Corporate does not get it… Repeated Leadership and Department reorgs cause huge confusion – someone please tell them this and I know they are reading this board, so here you have it. There is so much distraction and delayed progress across the... — read more
We started to receive transfer from two stores that are closing down.
We started to receive transfer from two stores that are closing down. With no hours and just you and yourself you have to get it done. It's just crazy how it started before they filed for bankruptcy.....
Left on my own, pretty bad experience
I started working there in August of 2015 hoping it would be something I like because I've associated myself with sports my whole life.... Yeah thought wrong.. communication was horrible and that's the major key in a company. And never really gave me... — read more
My store is closing, but here is what I am not going to miss:
Management sucks, metrics suck, SAP is bad, you'll work on holidays and no personal time - you will not be treated equally, they will look down on you. Some managers are racist.
They do not have to lay me off, I will leave on my own
You do not have a voice in the company - ZERO ZILCH NADA. Management is so bad, and communication is so poor, we had 5 employees leave our store in less than four weeks... Pay is as close to the minimum as possible. Hear me out - I have been working... — read more
It's not worth it
At one time Sportmart was a great and fun place work... Once the final merge to SportAuthority and name change the company went into a different direction in which good at first, but with the local regional management change and their views all of... — read more
How it's run
Little to no store-to-corporate communication. This place is so "wild-west" with their systems and communications. Looking up stocked items is like using an 80's format search, 1 out of 6 of our price-tag printers were reliable, and as an employee... — read more
Store Closure
I went into one the other week and saw that half the stuff was gone. Store looked empty. I asked the employees what was going on and they told me their management said they don't know to them
BK, Store Closures, Layoffs
We are about to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. We plan to close 30% of all stores, 150 stores to be closed. So much for growth that other posters are trying to portray here. It'll be a long year for SA, with pressures from all sides... — read more
100 folks cut
100 people were laid off last month in corporate... With rumors if restructuring the field with the certainty of store closures.
Sports Authority is going down, job cuts, attrition, bad...
Sports Authority is headed on a downward path. Quality of leadership at the very top of the stores organization, which has never been good historically, has only gotten worse over time. The top HR guy is also in over his head and not helpful. Im not... — read more
We are growing and doing well
No stores are closing and we are not cutting people
some stores are closing, there will be layoffs in the field and in corporate
some stores are closing, there will be layoffs in the field and in corporate
Watch out! I know someone with an excellent record of several years who was recently laid off by Sports Authority
Watch out! I know someone with an excellent record of several years who was recently laid off by Sports Authority. It is cutting down to the bone to make its figures look good for its soon to be public status. Not fair to its employees!
