This job is sort of a dead end if Im being honest. The workload doesn't match the pay. You're expected to do what managers & supervisors do, all while only being a Sales Associate. But you don't receive any benefits either. Supervisors only get paid a dollar more than Sales Associates, meanwhile managers get a lot more than both. 

I was expected to basically have my life revolve around this job and be there from early morning to closing at night because we were always short staffed. Management is rarely ever consistent and you're likely to have new managers every few months, due to staff shortages.

 Management also shows favoritism to certain people and will make you do extra work, or refuse to promote you even if you fit all the qualities. I recommend this job for people trying to make some side money. Maybe high schoolers and college students. But I wouldn't recommend this for anybody seriously trying to advance in life.  The money isn't worth it. Find a different job and avoid this company.

I learned a lot about sales and the retail business. I ran several very successful stores as a young single adult. When I had my first child and my family, I realized that my job had no room for them. There was no work/life balance. Forced to work late nights, almost every weekend and holidays. I had a salary position so I was never compensated for extra hours put in. I was promised bonuses that I never received. We were given very unrealistic sales goals, and constantly shamed by the day if we didn't mean the previous years goals. We also eventually lost privileges to new sneaker releases and discounts on the hot items. 

While at JD Finish Line I truly enjoyed my time there because the work was straightforward and easy to do.  You always had your hectic days but that is at every job, nothing is perfect. However, in the months that I was employed there I can say that was the lowest paid at any job and that is putting it nicely. There were weeks when I only worked twice a day which lead to some disheartening checks come payday. Aside from the scheduling issues (which was the cause for such low payment) the job was pretty good and you get a 30% discount on all apparel that isn’t YEEZY or Jordan 11s.

At first I was excited to work here but then the experience became sour. The ability for growth is there only if you overwork yourself. Favoritism was a part of this along side with you must prove to your store leader that you deserve to work there. I was overlooked because I shared my opinions & became isolated due to it. The job can became easy after training but it's all about who you know to fit in. 

Work here if you hate your life. Horrible management. They will fire you for anything they want to. They will promise you a promotion and never deliver. They will work you 80 hour weeks and pay you for 40. They will gaslight you into thinking bf you can land a corporate job only to lose your current position trying to to get it. They only value their bottom line. They will never have your back. I wasted 7 years of my life here that I will never get back. 

When I first started working for customer service, it was pretty easy and steady. First few years were pretty good, but then with all the system changes recently and all the changes in equipment too, it got harder. It did not help that every day was getting busier and busier, and at some point, chats and emails weren't even being taken anymore. 

Enjoyed Jd for the most part up until other people started getting hired , became a competitive floor . You had to prove your worth in order to stay . Very chill managers that dont expect much just effort . Staff is friendly as well and not bad pay and benifits .

I have worked for JD Finish Line Customer Care for over two years. Throughout the entire time, my coworkers have supported my journey from customer care representative to the support team. The training team ensures your success during and after training. The employee events are always a blast! Everyone has a good time together.

It’s easier to be sales associate because you don’t do as much compared to an apparel associate(they get paid less) however as an apparel associate you had to unbox, label, hang, tag, prepare clothes for display and even do an overnight shift, you can’t live off the pay and the work is excessive for the small amount of money you get paid 

No one is professional, the manager is child like, they don’t care for customer service, they allow the workers to disrespect the customers and they leave whenever they want
