Pros

An opportunity for the outdoorsman to work in the biz and get a great discount to boot. A big company with lots of structure; the major employer in a small city where they are the biggest fish in the pond, with a legendary reputation throughout the national marketplace.

Cons

Pay and benefits are woefully subpar, especially considering the company's size and profitability. No training offered for many positions. There's a bit of an "old boys network" with lots of empirism, so you'll need to tread lightly at times.

Pros

Health Care Plan and Vacation time.

Cons

Where do I begin. This is not the place to work for a long period of time, because they find a way to get rid of you for being their too long. Upper management is only after the bottom line and could care less about their employees. I'm specifically talking about the Tracker Boat Department in Mesa, Arizona. Upper management has nothing better to do than micro-manage their employees to the point that most of them are either quitting or they find a way to terminate you. There certainly isn't any loyalty or "family" as they put it at this store. I certainly would not recommend anyone to work at this store; young or old - the young will get the wrong idea of what it is to work for a corporation and the old will just get ticked off and quit.
