Fun place to work, manager not flexible
Sales Associate (Current Employee) – Potomac, MD – June 3, 2018
I loved working at Champs Sports, it was inviting and easy to learn how to do my job. They had videos and tests I would take in order to be doing the best job I could do. Videos on assisting customers all the way to tests on how to arrange the store.
Pros
Discounts on shoes
Cons
Short breaks, none flexible hours
work
Sales Associate (Current Employee) – Monterey, CA – December 11, 2018
Most days were slow due to low traffic. I learned to communicate with customers and how to use a cash register to handle money transactions. Hardest part of the job was the stress that came from it.

Good for part timers

I really enjoy working for champs. It is difficult to move up after becoming an assistant manager, but if one is looking for 30 hours a week, this is a perfect position.
Pros
Flexible Hours

Great place I worked hard when I worked for champs. Meet some of the most amazing people and hear the the craziest stories from the costumers . I love working for champs and if I had ah chance I would do it again.
Champs Sports was always a place I wanted to work because I love shoes.
FT Sales Lead (Former Employee) – San Francisco, CA – November 28, 2018
At Champs Sports I bonded with a lot of people. I earned a lot of new things everyday, dealt with tough things due to retail. But overall, it was a great experience for retail.
unorganized
Sales Associate (Former Employee) – Johnson City, TN – November 27, 2018
The management and team are not very good to work for. Other employees take your commission when they check customers out. They don't give you many hours to work, so not good for individuals looking for a full time job.
Pros
discounts
Cons
poor customer service
Enjoyable

fun space to interact with customers
Assistant Manager (Former Employee) – Amherst, NY – November 12, 2018
lack of loyalty from company side hurt but extra time from finishing tasks quickly meant more time to help customers, which is never a bad thing. Whether someone had a degree or not mattered little for advancement. People were promoted regardless of work ethic and was based upon numbers.
awesome job horrible managment at dadeland mall
Customer Service/Cashier (Current Employee) – Miami, FL – November 12, 2018
Awesome job to have company itself good however east coast florida regional manager horrific and dadeland mall horrible full of favortism and unfairness.
Fun job, but it's a joke.
Sales Associate (Former Employee) – Cape Girardeau, MO – November 11, 2018
It was losing business and slow 5 days a week. While here I learned how to sell but the other employees often took my sales because none of us got paid enough with our hourly wages. It was a negative place to work because one manager quit after working there for 3 months and the replacement is worse. The manager is too friendly with some of the employees and they just mess around all day and leave the mess to the evening crew. The manager also was no help in getting me my pay stubs and stuff like that. The hardest part of the job is selling because a lot of the merchandise is overpriced. The most enjoyable part of it was talking about the manager with my 2 favorite coworkers.
Pros
30% off
Cons
little to no hours, manager is dumb
nice work environment
Sales Associate (Former Employee) – Durham, NC – November 11, 2018
of all the mall stores, youre encouraged to sell but positively . the management is great and the people you work with are chill and its a nice place to work. you dont have to dread going in because of your coworkers or your boss
fast-paced, productivity-driven environment

Assistant Manager (Current Employee) – New York, NY – November 9, 2018
Working at champs sports for the past 3 years has been an enlightening experience. I have learned more about myself through working with the many personailities that I have encountered through managers and associates.
If you love working fast past this is for you..
Assistant Manager (Former Employee) – Prince George's County, MD – November 7, 2018
Champs Sports was an amazing job I’ve ever had. It is a rush especially during holiday season. You learn so much about sports, shoes, brands, companies etc. You learn about numbers and so on, most importantly you learn about customer service. Champs Sports is the way to go if you want to go to retail.
